Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of material preparation, and particularly relates to an alkali metal cation-doped carbon nitride microsphere catalyst for photocatalytic regeneration of NAD(P)H and nicotinamide-based artificial coenzymes, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Nicotinamide cofactors (NAD(P) / NAD(P)H), as a general proton / electron carrier, play an important role in biological oxidation-reduction reactions in vivo and in vitro. For example, NAD(P) + / NAD(P)H is a regulator that controls cell metabolism in vivo. At the same time, reactions catalyzed by redox enzymes in vitro usually require redox cofactors such as NAD(P)H to provide the supply of electrons and protons. These cofactors are expensive and need to be continuously regenerated to have practical significance. Nicotinamide cofactor-dependent redox enzymes are used in a wide range of industrial and biotechnological applications. In such enzyme catalysis, nicotinamide cofactors play an important role in electron and energy transfer. However, these cofactors show poor stability to extreme conditions such as high temperature, organic solvents, and acidic / alkaline pH, which limits the potential of redox enzymes in industrial applications. Therefore, the development of artificial cofactors and redox enzymes favorable for artificial cofactors becomes particularly important, which is beneficial to the development of in vitro enzyme synthesis systems in terms of availability and cost. Therefore, aiming at the characteristics that traditional enzyme-catalyzed NAD(P)H regeneration can only target natural coenzymes and utilize chemical energy, the development of catalysts that expand from natural coenzymes to artificial coenzymes and catalytic systems driven by renewable energy rather than chemical energy has practical application significance.

[0043] Test the above-prepared alkali metal cation-doped carbon nitride catalyst. The test method is as follows: First, add 30 mg of carbon nitride catalyst and 4.5 mL of triethanolamine to the sodium phosphate buffer solution, perform ultrasonic dispersion treatment, and then add 2.6 mg (0.2 mM) and 60 mg of NAD + (3 mM) to obtain a mixed solution. Then transfer the mixed solution to a photocatalytic reactor, stir it under sealed conditions, and introduce nitrogen at a rate of 10 mL / min. Pre-inflate for 30 min and heat it in a 37 °C water bath. Then use a 300 w xenon light source, take a visible light filter with a cut-off wavelength of 420 nm, control the light wavelength output by the xenon light source to visible light with a wavelength greater than 420 nm, and vertically irradiate the photocatalytic reactor to carry out the photocatalytic regeneration reaction of the coenzyme.

[0044] Take the reaction solution every 5 min to detect the concentration of NADH. Take 1 mL of the centrifuged supernatant, then dilute it with 2 mL of phosphate buffer solution, and detect the absorbance at a wavelength of 340 nm. Compare it with the standard curve to obtain the relationship between the concentration of NADH and the absorbance.

[0045] The calculation formula is: .

[0046] From Figure 1 the scanning electron microscope (SEM) images, it can be seen that the morphological structures of the alkali metal cation-doped carbon nitride catalysts 1 - alkali metal cation-doped carbon nitride 12 all show irregular particles and flakes, and the alkali metal cations with different radii result in different degrees of microsphere morphology of the catalysts. The addition of water during the grinding process of the catalyst and the influence of the ultrasonic time both have an impact on whether the catalyst produces microspheres.

[0047] Furthermore, from Figure 2 the Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrogram, it can be seen that the graphitic carbon nitride material modified with a larger ionic radius is the key factor for the alkali metal cation-doped carbon nitride microsphere catalyst to have a high coenzyme reproduction yield. Carbon nitride catalyst 6 is the original unmodified graphitic carbon nitride, without a cyano peak (2178 cm-1 ), and hydroxyl peaks (3200 cm -1 -3600 cm -1 , 1150 cm -1 , 1000 cm -1 ). There is a basic heptazine ring structure (1200 cm -1 -1800 cm -1 ). As the radius of the doped alkali metal cations increases, a large number of cyano groups (2178 cm -1 ) and hydroxyl peaks (3200 cm -1 -3600 cm -1 , 1150 cm -1 , 1000 cm -‍1 ) appear, indicating the introduction of a large number of these two types of functional group structures. The heptazine ring structure is consistent with that of the graphitic carbon nitride material, indicating that the heptazine ring structure is not damaged. As the ultrasonic time prolongs, the amounts of cyano and hydroxyl groups also gradually increase. After ultrasonic treatment for more than 24 h, the excessive content of cyano and hydroxyl groups leads to the destruction of the overall carbon-nitrogen structure, reducing the visible light response and the ability to regenerate coenzymes. Therefore, ultrasonic treatment for 24 h with the alkali metal cation-doped carbon nitride microsphere catalyst 1 modified by Cs ions with the largest ionic radius is the best.

[0048] It can be seen from the zeta-potential diagram ( Figure 3 ) that due to the incorporation of alkali metal cations into the carbon nitride matrix, when the ions are dispersed in the solution, the surface cations tend to dissolve in water, forming colloidal particles with a negative zeta-potential. The negative potential in the solution is related to the radius of the doped alkali metal cations. The larger the ionic radius, the more negative the zeta-potential, which can quickly adsorb the reactants onto the catalyst surface and is more conducive to the progress of the coenzyme regeneration process. The alkali metal cation-doped carbon nitride microsphere catalyst 1 modified by cesium chloride with the largest ionic radius is the best, with the most negative zeta-potential at -18.0 mV, showing the best NADH regeneration performance.

[0049] The experiment on the photocatalytic regeneration of NADH by the alkali metal cation-doped carbon nitride microsphere catalyst ( Figure 4 ) shows that as the radius of the doped alkali metal cations increases, the concentration of NADH regeneration increases significantly, and the carbon-nitrogen catalyst 1 has the highest NADH yield. As the ultrasonic time prolongs, the concentration of NADH regeneration increases accordingly. After ultrasonic treatment for more than 24 h, the NADH concentration will decrease again. Therefore, ultrasonic treatment for 24 h is the best.

[0050] From the comparison chart of the NADH yields of Figure 4 and Figure 5 , it can be seen that the catalysts prepared from the precursors of monocyanamide and dicyandiamide can both regenerate NADH, but the effect is not as good as that of melamine (comparisonFigure 4 The carbonitrogen catalyst 1). Alkali metal chlorides can be lithium chloride, sodium chloride, potassium chloride and rubidium chloride, all of which have the effect of regenerating NADH, but their effects are not as high as that of cesium chloride. When preparing the catalyst, too high or too low water consumption, ultrasonic treatment time, washing times, drying temperature, and drying time will all reduce the concentration of catalytic NADH. The optimal yield is obtained using the preferred conditions.

[0060] It can be seen from Figure 6 Examples (I-1) - (I-6) that NADPH and other nicotinamide-based artificial coenzymes can all be photocatalytically regenerated, and the regeneration concentration is comparable to that of NADH. As substitutes for natural cofactors, synthetic nicotinamide cofactor analogs are inexpensive, have good chemical stability, and even improve the biocatalytic efficiency. These synthetic artificial coenzymes can operate more complex reactions with various other redox enzymes. Photocatalytic regeneration of artificial coenzymes will promote the use of redox biocatalysts in chemical production at low cost, thus more widely changing the use of redox enzymes in industrial biocatalysis.

[0061] From Figure 7 it can be seen from Example I-7 that when GDH is used as the regenerating enzyme, the regeneration efficiency of NAD + and NADP + is slightly higher than the photocatalytic regeneration efficiency. However, for nicotinamide-based artificial coenzymes, the regeneration efficiency of GDH can be ignored. In contrast, the photocatalytic method can regenerate all artificial coenzymes with a relatively high efficiency, demonstrating the advantages of this catalytic system in practical applications.

[0062] From Figure 8 it can be seen from Examples I-8 and I-9 that increasing or decreasing the temperature will reduce the regeneration concentration of NADH (compared with Figure 4 Catalyst 1 in), so 37 °C is selected as the reaction temperature.
