- Enantioselective Bioamination of Aromatic Alkanes Using Ammonia: A Multienzymatic Cascade Approach
-
Chiral amines are common drug building blocks and important active pharmaceutical ingredients. Preparing these functionalized compounds from simple materials, such as alkanes, is of great interest. We recently developed an artificial bioamination cascade for the C?H amination of cyclic alkanes by combining P450 monooxygenase, alcohol dehydrogenase, and amine dehydrogenase. Herein, this system has been extended to the synthesis of chiral aromatic amines. In the first hydroxylation step, process optimization increased the conversion to 77 %. Two stereoselectively complementary alcohol dehydrogenases and an amine dehydrogenase were selected for the bioconversion of aromatic hydrocarbons to amines. The amination reaction was optimized with respect to cofactor addition and enzyme dosage. Isopropanol was added to decrease ketone intermediate accumulation in the amination step, which further enhanced the overall conversion. This cascade system converted a panel of hydrocarbon substrates into the corresponding amines with excellent optical purity (>99 % ee) and moderate conversion ratios (13–53 %).

- Identification of novel thermostable ω-transaminase and its application for enzymatic synthesis of chiral amines at high temperature
-
A novel thermostable ω-transaminase from Thermomicrobium roseum which showed broad substrate specificity and high enantioselectivity was identified, expressed and biochemically characterized. The advantage of this enzyme to remove volatile inhibitory by-products was demonstrated by performing asymmetric synthesis and kinetic resolution at high temperature.

- One-pot one-step deracemization of amines using ω-transaminases
-
In this study, we developed a one-pot one-step deracemization method for the production of various enantiomerically pure amines using two opposite enantioselective ω-TAs. Using this method, various aromatic amines were successfully converted to their (R)-forms (>99%) with good conversion.
