The development of electrodes for efficient CO reduction while forming valuable compounds is critical. The use of enzymes as catalysts provides the advantage of high catalytic activity in combination with highly selective transformations. We describe the electrical wiring of a carbon monoxide dehydrogenase II from (CODH II) using a cobaltocene-based low-potential redox polymer for the selective reduction of CO to CO over gas diffusion electrodes. High catalytic current densities of up to -5.5 mA cm are achieved, exceeding the performance of previously reported bioelectrodes for CO reduction based on either carbon monoxide dehydrogenases or formate dehydrogenases. The proposed bioelectrode reveals considerable ... More

High catalytic current densities of up to -5.5 mA cm are achieved, exceeding the performance of previously reported bioelectrodes for CO reduction based on either carbon monoxide dehydrogenases or formate dehydrogenases. The proposed bioelectrode reveals considerable stability with a half-life of more than 20 h of continuous operation. Product quantification using gas chromatography confirmed the selective transformation of CO into CO without any parasitic co-reactions at the applied potentials.
