A synthetic polymer has been prepared which contains dodecyl groups (to bind small substrate molecules) and methyleneimidazole side chains (as nucleophilic catalytic sites) linked to a polyethyleneimine framework. This macromolecule, with a high local concentration of binding and catalytic groups, catalyzes the hydrolysis of uncharged nitrophenyl esters in water at pH 7 with rates markedly greater than previously observed with any other synthetic substances under similar conditions.
一种合成聚合物已被制备出来,它含有十二烷基(用于结合小的底物分子)和连接到聚乙烯亚胺骨架上的亚甲基咪唑侧链(作为亲核催化位点)。这种大分子具有高局部浓度的结合和催化基团,在pH 7的水中催化不带电荷的硝基苯酯的水解,其速率明显高于在类似条件下用任何其他合成物质所观察到的速率。
