Ruthenium-catalyzed hydrogenation of aromatic amino acids in aqueous solution
Sun, Bing,Süss-Fink, Georg
, p. 81 - 86 (2016)
A catalyst containing metallic ruthenium nanoparticles intercalated in hectorite (nanoRu@hectorite) was found to catalyze the hydrogenation of aromatic amino acids in aqueous solution. Thus, l-phenylalanine and l-phenylglycine can be converted exclusively into the corresponding l-cyclohexyl amino acids with retention of chirality under mild conditions (60 °C, 40 bar), conversion and selectivity being superior to 99%. The catalyst can be recycled and reused at least three times without loss in activity and selectivity.

Paragraph 0073; 0097, (2016/11/17)
A synthesis method for L-cyclic alkyl amino acid and a pharmaceutical composition having the said amino acid are provide in the present disclosure provides. The synthesis method comprises: step A.) preparing a cyclic alkyl keto acid or a cyclic alkyl keto acid salt having Structural Formula (I) or Structural Formula (II), and step B.) mixing the cyclic alkyl keto acid or the cyclic alkyl keto acid salt with ammonium formate, a leucine dehydrogenase, a formate dehydrogenase and a coenzyme NAD+, and carrying out a reductive amination reaction to generate the L-cyclic alkyl amino acid, wherein the Structural Formula (I) is where n1≧1, m1≧0 and the M1 is H or a monovalent cation; the Structural Formula (II) is where n2≧0, m2≧0, the M2 is H or a monovalent cation, an amino acid sequence of the leucine dehydrogenase is SEQ ID No.1.
Practical and convenient enzymatic synthesis of enantiopure α-amino acids and amides

, p. 6542 - 6545 (2007/10/03)
Catalyzed by the nitrile hydratase and the amidease in Rhodococcus sp. AJ270 cells under very mild conditions, a number of α-aryl- and α-alkyl-substituted DL-glycine nitriles 1 rapidly underwent a highly enantioselective hydrolysis to afford D-(-)-α-amino acid amides 2 and L-(+)-α-amino acids 3 in high yields with excellent enantiomeric excesses in most cases. The overall enantioselectivity of the biotransformations of nitriles originated from the combined effects of a high L-enantioselective amidase and a low enantioselective nitrile hydratase. The influence of the substrates on both reaction efficiency and enantioselectivity was also discussed in terms of steric and electronic effects. Coupled with chemical hydrolysis of D-(-)-α-phenylglycine amide, biotransformation of DL-phenylglycine nitrile was applied in practical scale to produce both D- and L-phenylglycines in high optical purity.
