A novel [Co(L)(H 2 O) 2 ] (1) was obtained by hydrothermal method and it exhibited a 1D chain with exposed carboxyl groups, the unique coordination mode made it have unusual physical and chemical stability. Meanwhile, 1 showed peroxidase-like and weak oxidase-like activity. 1 as a peroxidase mimic enzyme had an excellent affinity for the substrates luminol and H 2 O 2 . Compared with HRP, 1 had catalytic activity in a wide pH range and showed the best catalytic activity at pH 7.4. Meanwhile, the catalysis process of 1 was reversible and recyclable, and the catalytic activity remained stable after different pH and temperatures and long-time storage. Based on the inhibition of glutathione on luminol-H 2 O 2 -MOF 1 chemiluminescence signal, a chemiluminescence method for the determination of glutathione has been proposed with high sensitivity and selectivity and had been applied for detecting glutathione in cell lysate with satisfactory results., (Copyright © 2021 Elsevier B.V.

A novel copper-based metal-organic framework (Cu-MOF) with a large specific surface area and high porosity was synthesized. The Cu-MOF was a good peroxidase-mimicking enzyme and showed a high affinity with hydrogen peroxide in a wide pH range. The catalytic mechanism of Cu-MOF has been studied further based on comparing the characteristic of the Cu-MOF with some isomorphic MOFs. The catalytic activity center of Cu-MOF was determined to be the cupric ion rather than the ligand, which effectively promoted the generation of free radicals and electron transfer in the reaction progress. The high affinity of Cu-MOF to hydrogen peroxide proved it as an ideal catalyst for the chemiluminescence (CL) reaction involving hydrogen peroxide. Therefore, the CL method with high sensitivity could be established for detecting various substrates. A double-enzyme CL glucose biosensing platform was constructed for the determination of serum glucose employing the peroxidase-mimicking properties of Cu-MOF as well as glucose oxidase (GOx).

An ultrasensitive sandwich electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor was designed for determination of concanavalin A (ConA) through the specific carbohydrate-ConA interactions. Three-dimensional porous metal-organic framework (Zn-MOF) was synthesized, which loaded a large amount of luminescent reagents as luminol by encapsulating into its pores to form Zn-MOF@luminol complex. Interestingly, Zn-MOF also acted as the coreactant accelerator in the luminol-H 2 O 2 ECL system. This Zn-MOF@luminol complex was used as the signal probe to achieve a super strong and stable ECL signal. In addition, three-dimensional hierarchical molybdenum disulfide nanoflower and multiwalled carbon nanotubes complex (MoS 2 NF@MWCNTs) with peroxidase-mimicking enzyme property were used as a substrate to modify the glassy carbon electrode to further enhance the ECL signal of luminol by promoting decomposition of H 2 O 2 into reactive oxygen species (ROSs). In addition to the horseradish peroxidase (HRP) catalysis effect on the luminol ECL signal, a triple amplified ConA sandwich ECL sensor with high sensitivity sensor was constructed. The linear range for ConA detection was from 0.5 pg/mL to 100 ng/mL with a detection limit of 0.3 pg/mL (S/N = 3). The recovery test for ConA in human serum samples was performed with satisfactory results. Graphical abstract.

A novel copper (Ⅱ) metal-organic framework ([Cu(L)(H 2 O) 2 ] n Cu-MOF) has been successfully synthesized by facile one step hydrothermal method. Modified the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) with this kind of Cu-MOF, a strong cathode electrochemiluminescence (ECL) signal was produced under the potential scan from 0.2 to −1.6 V in the potassium persulfate solution, which was about 8 times higher than that on the bare GCE electrode. The possible enhancement mechanism was studied in detail. The results showed that Cu (Ⅱ) in Cu-MOF catalyzed the reduction of potassium persulfate promoting the conversion of S 2 O 8 2− into SO 4 •− and enhancing ECL signal intensively. Based on the inhibition effect of ferrous ion on this ECL signal, a sensitive ECL method for the determination of ferrous ion was developed within the linear range from 1.0 × 10−10 M to 3.0 × 10−8 M and the detection limit of 4 × 10−11 M. The ECL method showed high sensitivity, good stability, and excellent reproducibility and had been applied for analysis of ferrous ion in environmental water samples successfully. • A novel Cu-MOF has been successfully synthesized by hydrothermal method. • An enhanced ECL signal has been observed with Cu-MOF modified GCE in the K 2 S 2 O 8 solution. • A sensitive ECL detection of ferrous ion was achieved with Cu-MOF-K 2 S 2 O 8 system.
