Rhodium(I)-catalyzed domino asymmetric ring opening/enantioselective isomerization of oxabicyclic alkenes with water

Water-induced asymmetric ring opening: Enantio-enriched 2-hydroxy-1-tetralones are formed from oxabicyclic alkenes through a novel RhI-catalyzed domino reaction. The proposed mechanism involves water-induced asymmetric ring opening to generate chiral trans-1,2-diol intermediates and subsequent enantioselective isomerization (see scheme). Copyright

Bio-inspired arene cis-dihydroxylation by a non-haem iron catalyst modeling the action of naphthalene dioxygenase

Reported in this paper is the first example of a biomimetic iron complex, ([FeII(TPA)(NCMe)2]2+ (TPA = tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine), that catalyses the cis-dihydroxylation of an aromatic double bond, mimicking the action of

Bioconversion of substituted naphthalenes to the corresponding 1,2-dihydro derivatives by Escherichia coli recombinant strains

1,2-dihydroxynaphthalenes are produced by bioconversion of the corresponding hydrocarbons using Escherichia coli recombinant strains containing the naphthalene dioxygenase and dehydrogenase genes cloned from pseudomonas fluorescens N3. Conversions are lead by a two step procedure without isolation of the dihydrodiol intermediate. Conversion rates depend on the position and nature of the naphthalene substituent.
