In this work, myoglobin (Mb) and sulfonated‐β‐cyclodextrin (S‐CD) were assembled into {S‐CD/Mb} n layer‐by‐layer films on solid substrates. In pH 7.0 buffers, the {S‐CD/Mb} n films assembled on electrodes showed a pair of well‐defined and nearly reversible CV peaks at about −0.35 V vs. SCE. The stable CV response of {S‐CD/Mb} n films could be used to electrocatalyze reduction of oxygen and hydrogen peroxide in solution. For comparison, another modified β‐cyclodextrin, carboxyethyl‐β‐cyclodextrin (C‐CD), was also assembled with Mb into {C‐CD/Mb} n multilayer films. The driving forces of the assembly were explored and discussed.
