The selective and efficient capture of phosphopeptides is critical for comprehensive and in-depth phosphoproteome analysis. Here we report a new switchable two-dimensional (2D) supramolecular polymer that serves as an ideal platform for the enrichment of phosphopeptides. A well-defined, positively charged metallacycle incorporated into the polymer endows the resultant polymer with a high affinity for phosphopeptides. Importantly, the stimuli-responsive nature of the polymer facilitates switchable binding affinity of phosphopeptides, thus resulting in an excellent performance in phosphopeptide enrichment and separation from model proteins. The polymer has a high enrichment capacity (165 mg/g) and detection sensitivity (2 fmol), high enrichment recovery (88%), excellent specificity, and rapid enrichment and separation properties. Additionally, we have demonstrated the capture of phosphopeptides from the tryptic digest of real biosamples, thus illustrating the potential of this polymeric material in phosphoproteomic studies.
