In this study, a new class of self-detoxifying composites, namely, HNTs@NU-912, HNTs@NU-912-I and HNTs@UiO-66-NH2, were constructed by in situ synthesis of hexanuclear zirconium cluster-based metal-organic frameworks (Zr-MOFs) NU-912, NU-912-I and UiO-66-NH2, respectively, with HNTs. These composites exhibited higher catalytic efficiency for the hydrolysis of DMNP compared to the corresponding Zr-MOFs.
Exploiting efficient and practical catalysts for hydrolyzing organophosphorus nerve agents is significant and highly desirable. Herein, a new class of self-detoxifying composites, namely, halloysite nanotubes@NU-912 (HNTs@NU-912), HNTs@NU-912-I and HNTs@UiO-66-NH2, is constructed by in situ synthesis of hexanuclear zirconium cluster-based metal-organic frameworks (Zr-MOFs) NU-912, NU-912-I and UiO-66-NH2, respectively, with HNTs, which are natural nanotubular materials consisting of Si-O-Si tetrahedral sheets on the outer surface and Al-OH octahedral sheets on the inner surface. The results show that crystalline Zr-MOFs uniformly cover the outer surface of HNTs and the particle size of Zr-MOFs is greatly reduced to less than 50 nm. Furthermore, HNTs@NU-912, HNTs@NU-912-I and HNTs@UiO-66-NH2 display much higher catalytic efficiency for the hydrolysis of dimethyl-4-nitrophenyl phosphate (DMNP) than the corresponding Zr-MOFs both in an aqueous N-ethylmorpholine (NEM) buffer solution and under ambient conditions. Specifically, HNTs@NU-912-I shows a turnover frequency (TOF) of 0.315 s(-1) in aqueous buffer solution, placing it among the best Zr-MOF-based heterogeneous catalysts for the hydrolysis of DMNP. The composites show high stability, and more importantly, can replace the buffer solvent and control the pH to a certain degree by virtue of its acidic Si-O-Si sheets and alkaline Al-OH sheets. This work provides a certain reference for the subsequent development of personal protective equipment.
