Nature has a remarkable ability to perform selective transformation of complex biological mixtures into desired products using enzymatic catalysts. We report the preparation of nanoparticle catalysts through molecular imprinting within cross-linked micelles. These catalysts were highly selective for their targeted substrates and could selectively hydrolyze less reactive acetals over more reactive ones even under basic conditions. Their catalytic activity and selectivity were tunable through rati ...[more]
