Background: In acetic acid bacteria such as Gluconobacter oxydans or Gluconobacter cerinus, pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) in the periplasm serves as the redox cofactor for several membrane-bound dehydrogenases that oxidize polyhydric alcohols to rare sugars, which can be used as a healthy alternative for traditional sugars and sweeteners. These oxidation reactions obey the generally accepted Bertrand Hudson's rule, in which only the polyhydric alcohols that possess cis D-erythro hydroxyl groups can be oxidized to 2-ketoses using PQQ as a cofactor, while the polyhydric alcohols excluding cis D-erythro hydroxyl groups ruled out oxidation by PQQ-dependent membrane-bound dehydrogenases. Methods: Membrane fractions of G. oxydans were prepared and used as a cell-free catalyst to oxidize galactitol, with or without PQQ as a cofactor. Results: In this study, we reported an interesting oxidation reaction that the polyhydric alcohols galactitol (dulcitol), which do not possess cis D-erythro hydroxyl groups, can be oxidized by PQQ-dependent membrane-bound dehydrogenase(s) of acetic acid bacteria at the C-3 and C-5 hydroxyl groups to produce rare sugars L-xylo-3-hexulose and D-tagatose. Conclusions: This reaction may represent an exception to Bertrand Hudson's rule. General significance: Bertrand Hudson's rule is a well-known theory in polyhydric alcohols oxidation by PQQ-dependent membrane-bound dehydrogenase in acetic acid bacteria. In this study, galactitol oxidation by a PQQ-dependent membrane-bound dehydrogenase represents an exception to the Bertrand Hudson's rule. Further identification of the associated enzymes and deciphering the explicit enzymatic mechanism will prove this theory.

(NH4)5H6PV8Mo4O40 supported on hydroxyapatite (HAP) (PMo4V8/HAP (n)) was prepared through the ion exchange of hydroxy groups. This ion exchange favored the oxidative conversion of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) to 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF) in a one-pot cascade reaction with 96.0 % conversion and 83.8 % yield under 10 mL/min of O2 flow. PMo4V8/HAP (31) was used to explore the production of DFF directly from glucose with the highest yield of 47.9 % so far under atmospheric oxygen, whereas the yield of DFF increased to 54.7 % in a one-pot and two-step reaction. These results indicated that the active sites in PMo4V8/HAP (31) retained their activities without any interference toward one another, which enabled the production of DFF in a more cost-saving way by only using oxygen and one catalyst in a one-step reaction. Meanwhile, the rigid structure of HAP and strong interaction in PMo4V8/HAP (31) allowed this catalyst to be reused for at least six times with high stability and duration.

Synthesis of a pentasil-type zeolite with ultra-small few-unit-cell crystalline domains, which we call FDP (few-unit-cell crystalline domain pentasil), is reported. FDP is made using bis-1,5(tributyl ammonium) pentamethylene cations as structure directing agent (SDA). This di-quaternary ammonium SDA combines butyl ammonium, in place of the one commonly used for MFI synthesis, propyl ammonium, and a five-carbon nitrogen-connecting chain, in place of the six-carbon connecting chain SDAs that are known to fit well within the MFI pores. X-ray diffraction analysis and electron microscopy imaging of FDP indicate ca. 10 nm crystalline domains organized in hierarchical micro-/meso-porous aggregates exhibiting mesoscopic order with an aggregate particle size up to ca. 5 μm. Al and Sn can be incorporated into the FDP zeolite framework to produce active and selective methanol-to-hydrocarbon and glucose isomerization catalysts, respectively.
Production of tagatose and talose through isomerization of galactose in a buffer solution under subcritical water conditions

Galactose was isomerized in pure water or in 10 mmol/L sodium phosphate buffer at 160 °C under pressurized conditions. The isomerization of galactose to tagatose and talose in phosphate buffer resulted in 14% and 1.4% yields, respectively, which were significantly higher than those obtained in subcritical pure water (0.6% and 6.3. Our results indicate that the galactose isomerization by Lobry de Bruyn-Alberda-van Ekenstein transformation rarely occurred at low pH due to the formation of organic acids.

We describe an efficient three-enzyme, sequential one-pot cascade reaction where both transketolase substrates are generated in situ in a convergent fashion. The nucleophilic donor substrate hydroxypyruvate was obtained from l-serine and pyruvate by a transaminase-catalyzed reaction. In parallel, three different (2S)-α-hydroxylated aldehydes, l-glyceraldehyde, d-threose, and l-erythrose, were generated as electrophilic acceptors from simple achiral compounds glycolaldehyde and formaldehyde by d-fructose-6-phosphate aldolase catalysis. The compatibility of the three enzymes was studied in terms of temperature, enzyme ratio and substrate concentration. The efficiency of the process relied on the irreversibility of the transketolase reaction, driving a shift of the reversible transamination reaction and securing the complete conversion of all substrates. Three valuable (3S,4S)-ketoses, l-ribulose, d-tagatose, and l-psicose were obtained in good yields with high diastereoselectivity.

Processes for converting glucose to sorbose with tailored selectivity. The processes include contacting glucose with a silica-containing structure that includes a zeolite having a topology of a 10-membered ring or smaller and Lewis acidic M4+ framework centers, wherein M is Ti, Sn, Zr, or Hf.

, p. 4807 - 4816 (2020/08/24)
Bio-refinery is attracting significant interest to produce a wide range of renewable chemicals and fuels from biomass that are alternative to fossil fuel derived petrochemicals. Similar to petrochemical industries, bio-refinery also depends on solid zeolite catalysts. Acid-base catalysis plays pivotal role in producing a wide range of chemicals from biomass. Herein, the Mg framework substituted MTW zeolite is synthesized and explored in the valorisation of glucose and furfural. Bi-functional (acidic and basic) characteristics are confirmed using pyridine adsorbed FT?IR analysis and NH3 and CO2 temperature-programmed desorption techniques. Textural properties and morphological information are retrieved from N2-sorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and electron microscopy. The activity of the catalyst is demonstrated in the selective isomerisation of glucose to fructose in ethanol. Glucose is converted to methyl lactate in high yield using the same catalyst. Further, the bi-functional activity of this catalyst is demonstrated in the production of fuel precursor by the reaction of furfural and isopropanol. Mg?MTW zeolite exhibits excellent activity in the production of all these chemicals and fuel derivative. The catalyst exhibits no significant loss in the activity even after five recycles. One simple catalyst affording three renewable synthetic intermediates from glucose and furfural will attract significant attention to catalysis researchers and industrialists.

l-arabinose isomerase (l-AI) (EC 5. 3. 1. 4. l-AI) that mediates the isomerization of d-galactose to d-tagatose was isolated from Lactobacillus brevis (MF 465792), and was further purified and characterized. Pure enzyme with molecular weight of 60.1?kDa was successfully obtained after the purification using Native-PAGE gel extraction method, which was a monomer in solution. The l-AI was found to be stable at 45–75?°C, and at pH 7.0–9.0. Its optimum temperature and pH was determined as 65?°C and 7.0, respectively. Besides, we found that Ca2+, Cu2+, and Ba2+ ions inhibited the enzyme activity, whereas the enzyme activity was significantly enhanced in the presence of Mg2+, Mn2+, or Co2+ ions. The optimum concentration of Mn2+ and Co2+ was determined to be 1?mM. Furthermore, we characterized the kinetic parameters for l-AI and determined the Km (129?mM) and the Vmax (0.045?mM min? 1) values. Notably, L. brevisl-AI exhibited a high bioconversion yield of 43% from d-galactose to d-tagatose under the optimal condition, and appeared to be a more efficient catalyst compared with other l-AIs from various organisms.
