Rhodococcus sp. AJ270 is an efficient whole-cell system able to catalyze the stereoselective conversions of racemic α-substituted phenylacetonitriles and amides under very mild conditions into enantiopure carboxylic acids and derivatives. The nitrile hydratase involved generally has a broad substrate spectrum against phenylacetonitriles irrespective of the electronic nature of the α-substituent while the amidase is very sensitive to both the electronic and steric factors of the substituent of amides. The overall enantioselectivity of nitrile hydrolysis is mainly determined by the combination of selectivities of nitrile hydratase and of amidase, with the latter being a major contributor. The amidase has high S-enantiocontrol against amides while the nitrile hydratase exhibits low R-selectivity against nitriles. The scope and limitations of this enantioselective biotransformation process are discussed. Copyright (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
