The immobilized resting-cell of Geotrichum candidum was used as a catalyst for the reduction of a ketone in a semi-continuous flow process using supercritical carbon dioxide for the first time; it was also applied for the asymmetric reduction of a ketone

The invention discloses a tridentate nitrogen phosphine ligand containing arylamine NH as well as a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis. The tridentate nitrogen phosphine ligand disclosed by the invention is the first case of tridentate nitrogen phosphine ligand containing not only a quinoline amine structure but also chiral ferrocene at present, a noble metal complex of the type of ligand shows good selectivity and extremely high catalytic activity in an asymmetric hydrogenation reaction, meanwhile, a cheap metal complex of the ligand can also show good selectivity and catalytic activity in the asymmetric hydrogenation reaction, and is very easy to modify in the aspects of electronic effect and space structure, so that the ligand has huge potential application value. A catalyst formed by the ligand and a transition metal complex can be used for catalyzing various reactions, can be used for synthesizing various drugs, and has important industrial application value.

Enzyme stereoselectivity control is still a major challenge. To gain insight into the molecular basis of enzyme stereo-recognition and expand the source of antiPrelog carbonyl reductase toward β-ketoesters, rational enzyme design aiming at stereoselectivity inversion was performed. The designed variant Q139G switched the enzyme stereoselectivity toward β-ketoesters from Prelog to antiPrelog, providing corresponding alcohols in high enantiomeric purity (89.1–99.1 % ee). More importantly, the well-known trade-off between stereoselectivity and activity was not found. Q139G exhibited higher catalytic activity than the wildtype enzyme, the enhancement of the catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km) varied from 1.1- to 27.1-fold. Interestingly, the mutant Q139G did not lead to reversed stereoselectivity toward aromatic ketones. Analysis of enzyme–substrate complexes showed that the structural flexibility of β-ketoesters and a newly formed cave together facilitated the formation of the antiPrelog-preferred conformation. In contrast, the relatively large and rigid structure of the aromatic ketones prevents them from forming the antiPrelog-preferred conformation.
