Active colloidal catalysts inspired by
glutathione peroxidase
(GPx) were synthesized by integration of catalytically active selenium (Se) moieties into aqueous microgels. A diselenide crosslinker (Se X-linker) was successfully synthesized and incorporated into microgels through precipitation polymerization, along with the conventional crosslinker N,N'-methylenebis(acrylamide) (

). Diselenide bonds within the microgels were cleaved through oxidation by H

and converted to seleninic acid whilst maintaining the intact microgel microstructure. Through this approach catalytically active microgels with variable amounts of seleninic acid were synthesized. Remarkably, the microgels exhibited higher catalytic activity and selectivity at low reaction temperatures than the molecular Se catalyst in a model oxidation reaction of acrolein to acrylic acid and methyl acrylate.
