Isolation and characterization of racemase from Ensifer sp. 23-3 that acts on α-aminolactams and α-amino acid amides

Limited information is available on α-amino-ε-caprolactam (ACL) racemase (ACLR), a pyridoxal 5′-phosphate-dependent enzyme that acts on ACL and α-amino acid amides. In the present study, eight bacterial strains with the ability to racemize α-amino-ε-caprolactam were isolated and one of them was identified as Ensifer sp. strain 23-3. The gene for ACLR from Ensifer sp. 23-3 was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant ACLR was then purified to homogeneity from the E. coli transformant harboring the ACLR gene from Ensifer sp. 23-3, and its properties were characterized. This enzyme acted not only on ACL but also on α-amino-δ-valerolactam, α-amino-ω-octalactam, α-aminobutyric acid amide, and alanine amide.

Reaction of Metal Alkoxides with Lysine: Substitution of Alkoxide Ligands vs. Lactam Formation

Reaction of Ti(OEt)4 with lysine results in the formation of Ti(OEt)3(lysinate), as previously reported. Contrary to that, Al(OsBu)3 only catalyzes the formation of 3-aminocaprolactam, and no substitution produc

Influence of cyclodextrin on the UCST- and LCST-Behavior of poly(2-methacrylamido-caprolactam)- Co-(N,N-dimethylacrylamide)

The monomer 2-methacrylamido-caprolactam (4) was synthesized from methacryloyl chloride (3) and racemic a-amino-e-caprolactam (2). Copolymerization of 4 with N,N-dimethylacrylamide (5) was carried out by a free-radical mechanism using 2,2- azobis(2-methylpropionitrile) (AIBN) as an initiator. The new copolymers show a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) in water and an upper critical solution temperature (UCST) in ethanol, 1-propanol, and 1-butanol. The solubility properties of the copolymers can be influenced significantly by the addition of randomly methylated ss-cyclodextrin (CD). The complexation of the copolymers with CD, was confirmed by the use of ROESY-NMR-spectroscopy.

Organocatalytic Decarboxylation of Amino Acids as a Route to Bio-based Amines and Amides

Amino acids obtained by fermentation or recovered from protein waste hydrolysates represent an excellent renewable resource for the production of bio-based chemicals. In an attempt to recycle both carbon and nitrogen, we report here on a chemocatalytic, metal-free approach for decarboxylation of amino acids, thereby providing a direct access to primary amines. In the presence of a carbonyl compound the amino acid is temporarily trapped into a Schiff base, from which the elimination of CO2 may proceed more easily. After evaluating different types of aldehydes and ketones on their activity at low catalyst loadings (≤5 mol%), isophorone was identified as powerful organocatalyst under mild conditions. After optimisation many amino acids with a neutral side chain were converted in 28–99 % yield in 2-propanol at 150 °C. When the reaction is performed in DMF, the amine is susceptible to N-formylation. This consecutive reaction is catalysed by the acidity of the amino acid reactant itself. In this way, many amino acids were efficiently transformed to the corresponding formamides in a one-pot catalytic system.

Α-amino-ε-caprolactam producing method

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing α-amino-ε-caprolactam from lysine or a salt thereof by using a nonpolar solvent which is easily recovered and recycled in place of a polar solvent such as an alcohol. SOLUTION: The problem is solved by the method for producing α-amino-ε-caprolactam, in which lysine or a salt thereof is dehydrated and cyclized in the presence of the mixed solvent of the nonpolar solvent and water kept at a temperature of 200-400°C and a pressure of 5-40 MPa. An amount of water to be used is reduced, and corrosion of a reactor is alleviated, and the nonpolar solvent is easily recovered and recycled. COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT

Oligomeric epoxide-amine adducts based on 2-amino-N-isopropylacetamide and a-amino-ε-caprolactam: Solubility in presence of cyclodextrin and curing properties

2-Amino-N-isopropylacetamide and α-amino-ε-caprolactam were reacted with glycerol diglycidyl ether to give novel oligomeric thermoresponsive epoxide-amine adducts. These oligomers exhibit a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) behavior in water. The solubility properties were influenced with randomly methylated β-cyclodextrin (RAMEB-CD) and the curing properties of the amine-epoxide mixtures were analyzed by oscillatory rheology and differential scanning calorimetry, whereby significant differences in setting time, viscosity, and stiffness were observed.
