The pH-dependent selective Ir-catalyzed hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes was realized in water. Using HCOOH as the hydride donor at low pH, the unsaturated alcohol products were obtained exclusively, while the saturated alcohol products were formed preferentially by employing HCOONa as the hydride donor at high pH. A wide range of functional groups including electron-rich as well as electron-poor substituents on the aryl group of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes can be tolerated, affording the corresponding products in excellent yields with high TOF values. High selectivity and yields were also observed for α,β-unsaturated aldehydes with aliphatic substituents. Our mechanistic investigations indicate that the pH value is critical to the chemoselectivity.

Bacterial luciferase catalyzes the monooxygenation of long-chain aldehydes such as tetradecanal to the corresponding acid accompanied by light emission with a maximum at 490?nm. In this study even numbered aldehydes with eight, ten, twelve and fourteen carbon atoms were compared with analogs having a double bond at the α,β-position. These α,β-unsaturated aldehydes were synthesized in three steps and were examined as potential substrates in vitro. The luciferase of Photobacterium leiognathi was found to convert these analogs and showed a reduced but significant bioluminescence activity compared to tetradecanal. This study showed the trend that aldehydes, both saturated and unsaturated, with longer chain lengths had higher activity in terms of bioluminescence than shorter chain lengths. The maximal light intensity of (E)-tetradec-2-enal was approximately half with luciferase of P. leiognathi, compared to tetradecanal. Luciferases of Vibrio harveyi and Aliivibrio fisheri accepted these newly synthesized substrates but light emission dropped drastically compared to saturated aldehydes. The onset and the decay rate of bioluminescence were much slower, when using unsaturated substrates, indicating a kinetic effect. As a result the duration of the light emission is doubled. These results suggest that the substrate scope of bacterial luciferases is broader than previously reported.
