38. Two control experiments, to some extent, can exclude the possibility of phosphate acts as a ligand binding to copper center: a) HR-MS of the catalyst dissolved in pure water was identical to the sample in 0.1 M phosphate buffer (Supporting Information); b) The catalytic current has a similar strength in different concentrations of buffer solution (0.02 M–2 M, pH 7, see Supporting Information).
