Because the synthesis of chiral compounds generally requires a broad range of substrate specificity and stable enzymes, screening for better enzymes and/or improvement of enzyme properties through molecular approaches is necessary for sustainable industri

The search for versatile heterogeneous catalysts with multiple active sites for broad asymmetric transformations has long been of great interest, but it remains a formidable synthetic challenge. Here we demonstrate that multivariate metal-organic frameworks (MTV-MOFs) can be used as an excellent platform to engineer heterogeneous catalysts featuring multiple and cooperative active sites. An isostructural series of 2-fold interpenetrated MTV-MOFs that contain up to three different chiral metallosalen catalysts was constructed and used as efficient and recyclable heterogeneous catalysts for a variety of asymmetric sequential alkene epoxidation/epoxide ring-opening reactions. Interpenetration of the frameworks brings metallosalen units adjacent to each other, allowing cooperative activation, which results in improved efficiency and enantioselectivity over the sum of the individual parts. The fact that manipulation of molecular catalysts in MTV-MOFs can control the activities and selectivities would facilitate the design of novel multifunctional materials for enantioselective processes.

Biocatalysts originating from Badamu (Prunus communis) have been applied to catalyze the asymmetric synthesis of (R)-4-methylsulfanylmandelonitrile, a key building block of thiamphenicol and florfenicol. Here, four hydroxynitrile lyase (HNL) isozymes from Badamu were cloned and heterologously expressed in Pichia pastoris. The biochemical properties and catalytic performances of these isozymes were comprehensively explored to evaluate their efficiency and selectivity in asymmetric synthesis. Among then, PcHNL5 was identified with outstanding activity and enantioselectivity in asymmetric hydrocyanation. Under the optimized mild biphasic reaction conditions, seventeen prochiral aromatic aldehydes were converted to valuable chiral cyanohydrins with good yields (up to 94%) and excellent optical purities (up to >99.9% ee), which provide a facile access to numerous chiral amino alcohols, hypoglycemic agents, angiotension converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and β-blockers. This work therefore underlines the importance of discovering the most potent biocatalyst among a group of isozymes for converting unnatural substrates into value-added products. (Figure presented.).

Hydroxynitrile lyase (HNL) catalyzes the degradation of cyanohy-drins and causes the release of hydrogen cyanide (cyanogenesis). HNL can enantioselectively produce cyanohydrins, which are valuable building blocks for the synthesis of fine chemicals and ph

Five tridentate Schiff bases have been prepared from (1R,2S,3R,4S)-3-amino- 1,7,7-trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-ol and salicylaldehydes. X-ray structure investigation revealed differences in their molecular conformation, and their titanium(IV) complexes

Using an acetone precipitation method, crude (S)-hydroxynitrile lyase [(S)-MeHNL] was separated from Munihot esculenta (cassava) leaves, and used directly as biocatalyst to catalyze asymmetric cyanohydrination and produce cyanohydrins with enantiomeric purities (≥90% ee) significantly greater than those previously reported. The use of a water/i-Pr2O system with an enzyme, NaCN, and appropriate amounts of acetic acid is crucial in improving the stereoselectivity of cyanohydrin formation by minimizing the non-enzymatic reaction and the racemization of the chiral products. The proposed isolation method for crude (S)-MeHNL has a high value because of its simplicity, and low cost as well as the high activity of the crude (S)-MeHNL.

experimental part, p. 648 - 657 (2011/07/08)
A group of tridentate Schiff bases derived from (+)-α-pinene were synthesized. The steric effects in the transition state, the importance of π-π stacking interactions as well as the electronic effects of aryl aldehydes according to Hammett constant values in the enantioselective addition of Et2Zn to aldehydes with the use of Schiff bases as chiral ligands are described. Also, a variety of aldehydes were cyanated using a catalyst prepared in situ from titanium tetraisopropoxide and chiral Schiff bases. The influence of a conjugated double-bond in the cyanation substrates on enantioselectivity was observed. The chemical structures of the chiral Schiff base-titanium alkoxide complexes are discussed based on their 1H and 13C NMR spectra. 3D models of the Zn2-complex catalyst and Ti-complex catalyst containing α-pinane-type Schiff bases based on X-ray diffraction experiments are postulated. The models presented were consistent with the reported chirality of the addition product and observed ee.
