Metal complexes of a poly(4-vinylpyridine-co-acrylamide) copolymer (P1) exhibit significant hydrolytic and oxidation/oxygenation activities. These metallopolymers exhibit enzyme-mimicking selectivity, cooperativity, and induced-fit mechanism during catalyses. Fe³⁺-P1 exhibits a significant catechol dioxygenase activity in aqueous media with k_2(CA) = 0.011 M⁻¹ s⁻¹ and k_2(O2) = 0.213 M⁻¹ s⁻¹ for aerobic oxidative catechol cleavage, comparable to many structurally characterized complexes. The substrate-bound S–Fe(III)-P1 intermediates are characterized by the use of electronic, resonance Raman, and EPR spectroscopic methods. Copolymers generally lack well-defined structures, which nevertheless should not hinder further development of functional metallopolymers for broad applications.

聚（4-乙烯基吡啶-共-丙烯酰胺）共聚物（P1）的金属络合物表现出显着的水解和氧化/氧化活性。这些金属聚合物在催化过程中表现出模仿酶的选择性，协同作用和诱导拟合机理。的Fe ³⁺ - P1呈现在水性介质中与显著儿茶酚双加氧酶活ķ _2（CA）  = 0.011中号^-1 小号^-1和ķ _2（O2）  = 0.213中号^-1 小号^-1需氧氧化儿茶酚裂解，可比许多结构特征复杂的化合物。与底物结合的S –Fe（III）-P1中间体的特征是使用电子，共振拉曼光谱和EPR光谱法。共聚物通常缺乏明确定义的结构，然而，这不应阻碍功能性金属聚合物在广泛应用中的进一步发展。
