Insight into the template effect of vesicles on the laccase-catalyzed oligomerization of N-phenyl-1,4-phenylenediamine from Raman spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry measurements.

ABSTRACT: We report about the first Raman spectroscopy study of a vesicle-assisted enzyme-catalyzed oligomerization reaction. The aniline dimer N-phenyl-1,4-phenylenediamine (=?p-aminodiphenylamine, PADPA) was oxidized and oligomerized with Trametes versicolor laccase and dissolved O2 in the presence of sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (AOT) vesicles (80-100?nm diameter) as templates. The conversion of PADPA into oligomeric products, poly(PADPA), was monitored during the reaction by in situ Raman spectroscopy. The results obtained are compared with UV/vis/NIR and EPR measurements. All three complementary methods indicate that at least some of the poly(PADPA) products, formed in the presence of AOT vesicles, resemble the conductive emeraldine salt form of polyaniline (PANI-ES). The Raman measurements also show that structural units different from those of "ordinary" PANI-ES are present too. Without vesicles PANI-ES-like products are not obtained. For the first time, the as-prepared stable poly(PADPA)-AOT vesicle suspension was used directly to coat electrodes (without product isolation) for investigating redox activities of poly(PADPA) by cyclic voltammetry (CV). CV showed that poly(PADPA) produced with vesicles is redox active not only at pH 1.1-as expected for PANI-ES-but also at pH 6.0, unlike PANI-ES and poly(PADPA) synthesized without vesicles. This extended pH range of the redox activity of poly(PADPA) is important for applications.

We report about the first Raman spectroscopy study of a vesicle-assisted enzyme-catalyzed oligomerization reaction.

Project description:Many previous studies have shown that (i) the oxidation of aniline or the aniline dimer p-aminodiphenylamine (PADPA) in a slightly acidic aqueous solution can be catalyzed with heme peroxidases or multicopper laccases and that (ii) subsequent reactions lead to oligomeric or polymeric products, which resemble chemically synthesized polyaniline in its conductive emeraldine salt form (PANI-ES), provided that (iii) an anionic "template" is present in the reaction medium. Good templates are anionic polyelectrolytes, micelles, or vesicles. Under optimal conditions, their presence directs the reactions in a positive way toward the desired formation of PANI-ES-type products. The effect of four different types of anionic templates on the formation of PANI-ES-like products from PADPA was investigated and compared by using Trametes versicolor laccase (TvL) as a catalyst in an aqueous pH 3.5 solution at room temperature. All four templates contain sulfonate groups: the sodium salt of the polyelectrolyte sulfonated polystyrene (SPS), micelles from sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS), vesicles from a 1:1 molar mixture of SDBS and decanoic acid, and vesicles from sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (AOT). Although with all four templates, stable, inkjet-printable solutions or suspensions consisting of PANI-ES-type products were obtained under optimized conditions, considerably higher amounts of TvL were required with SDBS micelles to achieve comparable monomer conversion to PANI-ES-like products during the same time period when compared to those with SPS or the two types of vesicles. This makes SDBS micelles less attractive as templates for the investigated reaction. In situ UV/vis/near-infrared, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and Raman spectroscopy measurements in combination with an high-performance liquid chromatography analysis of extracted reaction products, which were deprotonated and chemically reduced, showed seemingly small but significant differences in the composition of the mixtures obtained when reaching reaction equilibrium after 24 h. With the two vesicle systems, the content of unwanted substituted phenazine units was lower than in the case of SPS polyelectrolyte and SDBS micelles. The EPR spectra indicate a more localized, narrower distribution of electronic states of the paramagnetic centers of the PANI-ES-type products synthesized in the presence of the two vesicle systems when compared to that of the similar products obtained with the SPS polyelectrolyte and SDBS micelles as templates. Overall, the data obtained from the different complementary methods indicate that with the two vesicle systems structurally more uniform (regular) PANI-ES-type products formed. Among the two investigated vesicle systems, for the investigated reaction (oxidation of PADPA with TvL and O2), AOT appears a somewhat better choice as it leads to a higher content of the PANI-ES polaron form.
