A simple, highly efficient and mild catalytic aerobic oxidation of alcohol, in particularly benzoin was studied using iron oxide nanoparticles as a reusable catalyst. Moreover, benzyl was synthesized in large scale using inexpensive, readily available and

We report here the stereoselective bioreduction of α-nitro ketones catalyzed by ketoreductases (KREDs) with publicly known sequences. YGL039w and RasADH/SyADH were able to reduce 23 class I substrates (1-aryl-2-nitro-1-ethanone (1)) and ten class II substrates (1-aryloxy-3-nitro-2-propanone (4)) to furnish both enantiomers of the corresponding β-nitro alcohols, with good-to-excellent conversions (up to >99%) and enantioselectivities (up to >99% ee) being achieved in most cases. To the best of our knowledge, KRED-mediated reduction of class II α-nitro ketones (1-aryloxy-3-nitro-2-propanone (4)) is unprecedented. Select β-nitro alcohols, including the synthetic intermediates of bioactive molecules (R)-tembamide, (S)-tembamide, (S)-moprolol, (S)-toliprolol and (S)-propanolol, were stereoselectively synthesized in preparative scale with 42% to 90% isolated yields, showcasing the practical potential of our developed system in organic synthesis. Finally, the advantage of using KREDs with known sequence was demonstrated by whole-cell catalysis, in which β-nitro alcohol (R)-2k, the key synthetic intermediate of hypoglycemic natural product (R)-tembamide, was produced in a space-time yield of 178 g L?1 d?1 as well as 95% ee by employing the whole cells of a recombinant E. coli strain coexpressing RasADH and glucose dehydrogenase as the biocatalyst.

Herein, we introduce α-nitro-α,β-unsaturated ketones as efficient electrophilic acyl transfer reagents, and they were employed in Friedel-Crafts as well as in Michael reactions. The desired acyl transfer products of these reactions were obtained in high yields with high to excellent enantioselectivities with t-leucine-derived squaramide catalyst under mild reaction conditions. Few applications including a synthesis of the isoxazoline motif have been demonstrated.
