Natural amino acids are important building blocks for the construction of intriguing coordination polymers (CPs) because of their abundance, inexpensiveness and environmental benignness. Herein, two copper(II) CPs, namely, 2D CuIle-e nanosheet (e: ethanol) and 1D CuIle-m nanoshuttle (m: methanol), were fabricated from L-isoleucine (Ile) and well characterized with single-crystal x-ray diffraction, XPS spectra, TEM and AFM, etc. More importantly, two novel and stable catalytic nanosystems, i.e. CuIle-e/acetone/TBHP (tert-butyl hydroperoxide) and CuIle-e/THF/O2/TBHP, were thus conveniently built by using ultrathin 2D CuIle-e nanosheet (~ 2.3 nm) in suitable aprotic solvents. Under mild conditions, complete conversion of β-caryophyllene and good yields (86.1% or 87.2%) for β-caryophyllene epoxide were gained via CuIle-e/acetone/TBHP or CuIle-e/THF/O2 (1 atm)/TBHP (10.0 mol%), respectively. Notably, ultrathin CuIle-e nanosheet showed fairly satisfactory stability, which may open a unique window for the facile fabrication of new amino-acid based CP nanosystems with outstanding catalytic performances in actual applications.

Epoxidation chemistry often suffers from the challenging handling of peracids and thus requires in situ preparation. Here, we describe a two-phase enzymatic system that allows the effective generation of peracids and directly translate their activity to the epoxidation of olefins. We demonstrate the approach by application to lipid and olefin epoxidation as well as sulfide oxidation. These methods offer useful applications to synthetic modifications and scalable green processes.
