Highly enantioselective aminoacylase-catalyzed transesterification of secondary alcohols
Bakker,Spruijt,Van Rantwijk,Sheldon
, p. 1801 - 1808 (2000)
The aminoacylase (N-acyl-L-amino acid amidohydrolase; E.C. 3.5.1.14) from Aspergillus melleus, a readily available inexpensive enzyme, catalyzes the transesterification of a wide range of chiral secondary arylalkanols with essentially absolute stereoselectivity (E> 500). Moreover, the productivities obtained with 1-phenylethanol, 1-phenylpropanol, 1-(1-naphthyl)ethanol and 1- (2-naphthyl)ethanol were substantially higher than those in the corresponding lipase-catalyzed transesterifications.

Eljo, Jasmin,Carle, Myriam S.,Murphy, Graham K.
, p. 2871 - 2875 (2017)
The use of hypervalent iodine reagents as a general tool for the activation of PPh 3 and its application to the functionalization of alcohols is reported. Combination of PPh 3 with PhICl 2 or TolIF 2 gives dihalophosphoranes that are characterized by 31 P NMR, however, with PhIOAc 2, PhI(OTFA) 2, or the cyclic chloro(benzoyloxy)iodane, no phosphoranes were observed. Reaction of these iodanes with PPh 3 in the presence of primary, secondary, or tertiary alcohols results in either halogenation or acyl-transfer products in moderate to high yield.

For the first time, CO2-expanded bio-based liquids were reported as novel and sustainable solvents for biocatalysis. Herein, it was found that by expansion with CO2, 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (MeTHF), and other bio-based liquids, which were not favorable solvents for immobilized Candida antarctica lipase B (Novozym 435) catalyzed transesterification, were tuned into excellent reaction media. Especially, for the kinetic resolution of challenging bulky secondary substrates such as rac-1-adamantylethanol, the lipase displayed very high activity with excellent enantioselectivity (E value > 200) in CO2-expanded MeTHF (MeTHF concentration 10% v/v, 6 MPa), whereas there was almost no activity observed in conventional organic solvents.

Weiser, Diána,Boros, Zoltán,Hornyánszky, Gábor,Tóth, Alexandra,Poppe, László
, p. 428 - 434 (2012)
The disubstituted dimethyldiethoxysilane (DMDEOS), methyl(phenyl) diethoxysilane (MPDEOS) and diphenyldiethoxysilane (DPDEOS) were used in binary silane precursor systems in combination with tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) for the immobilization of lipase from Pseudomonas fluorescens (Lipase AK). In addition, ternary silane precursor systems with TEOS and octyltriethoxysilane (OTEOS) or phenyltriethoxysilane (PTEOS) were also studied for encapsulation. The best performing ternary sol-gel preparations (418-736% activity yields of the immobilized enzyme with 1-phenylethanol rac-1a as compared to the native form) were tested as biocatalysts for kinetic resolutions of rac-1a, 1-phenylpropan-2-ol rac-1b and 4-phenylbutan-2-ol rac-1c. Because the catalytic properties and the operational stability of the DMDEOS-containing preparations proved to be superior to all the tested free and sol-gel entrapped Lipase AK biocatalysts in batch mode, the kinetic resolutions of rac-1a and rac-1b were performed with the TEOS/PTEOS/DMDEOS 4:1:1 Lipase AK in a continuous-flow reactor as well.

In this study, an immobilization strategy for magnetic cross-linking enzyme aggregates of lipase B from Candida antarctica (CALB) was developed and investigated. Magnetic particles were prepared by conventional co-precipitation. The magnetic nanoparticles were modified with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) to obtain surface amino-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (APTES–Fe3O4) as immobilization materials. Glutaraldehyde was used as a crosslinker to covalently bind CALB to APTES–Fe3O4. The optimal conditions of immobilization of lipase and resolution of racemic 1-phenylethanol were investigated. Under optimal conditions, esters could be obtained with conversion of 50%, enantiomeric excess of product (eep) > 99%, enantiomeric excess of substrate (ees) > 99%, and enantiomeric ratio (E) > 1000. The magnetic CALB CLEAs were successfully used for enzymatic kinetic resolution of fifteen secondary alcohols. Compared with Novozym 435, the magnetic CALB CLEAs exhibited a better enantioselectivity for most substrates. The conversion was still greater than 49% after the magnetic CALB CLEAs had been reused 10 times in a 48 h reaction cycle; both ees and eep were close to 99%. Furthermore, there was little decrease in catalytic activity and enantioselectivity after being stored at ?20 ?C for 90 days.
Discovery and Redesign of a Family VIII Carboxylesterase with High (S)-Selectivity toward Chiral sec-Alcohols

Highly enantioselective lipase has been widely utilized in the preparation of versatile enantiopure chiral sec-alcohols through kinetic or dynamic kinetic resolution. Lipase is intrinsically (R)-selective, and it is difficult to obtain (S)-selective lipase. Recent crystal structures of a family VIII carboxylesterase have revealed that the spatial array of its catalytic triad is the mirror image of that of lipase but with a catalytic triad that is distinct from lipase. We, therefore, hypothesized that the family VIII carboxylesterase may exhibit (S)-enantioselectivity toward sec-alcohols similar to (S)-selective serine protease, whose catalytic triad is also spatially arrayed as its mirror image. In this study, a homologous enzyme (carboxylesterase from Proteobacteria bacterium SG_bin9, PBE) of a known family VIII carboxylesterase (pdb code: 4IVK) was prepared, which showed not only moderate (S)-selectivity toward sec-alcohols such as 3-butyn-2-ol and 1-phenylethyl alcohol but also (R)-selectivity toward particular sec-alcohols among the substrates explored. Furthermore, the (S)-selectivity of PBE has been significantly improved by rational redesign based on molecular modeling. Molecular modeling identified a binding pocket composed of Ser381, Ala383, and Arg408 for the methyl substituent of (R)-1-phenylethyl acetate and suggested that larger residues may increase the enantioselectivity by interfering with the binding of the slow-reacting enantiomer. As predicted, substituting Ser381with larger residues (Phe, Tyr, and Trp) significantly improved the (S)-selectivity of PBE toward all sec-alcohols explored, even the substrates toward which the wild-type PBE exhibits (R)-selectivity. For instance, the enantioselectivity toward 3-butyn-2-ol and 1-phenylethyl alcohol was improved from E = 5.5 and 36.1 to E = 2001 and 882, respectively, by single mutagenesis (S381F).

Enzymatic microarchitectures with spatially controlled reactivity, engineered molecular sieving ability, favorable interior environment, and industrial productivity show great potential in synthetic protocellular systems and practical biotechnology, but their construction remains a significant challenge. Here, we proposed a Pickering emulsion interface-directed synthesis method to fabricate such a microreactor, in which a robust and defect-free MOF layer was grown around silica emulsifier stabilized droplet surfaces. The compartmentalized interior droplets can provide a biomimetic microenvironment to host free enzymes, while the outer MOF layer secludes active species from the surroundings and endows the microreactor with size-selective permeability. Impressively, the thus-designed enzymatic microreactor exhibited excellent size selectivity and long-term stability, as demonstrated by a 1000 h continuous-flow reaction, while affording completely equal enantioselectivities to the free enzyme counterpart. Moreover, the catalytic efficiency of such enzymatic microreactors was conveniently regulated through engineering of the type or thickness of the outer MOF layer or interior environments for the enzymes, highlighting their superior customized specialties. This study provides new opportunities in designing MOF-based artificial cellular microreactors for practical applications.

We have developed a two-step protocol for iodotrimethylsilane-mediated deoxy-functionalization of primary and secondary alcohols to afford products containing a C?N, C?S, or C?O bond. In the first step the alcohol undergoes iodination with iodotrimethylsilane, and in the second, the iodine atom is replaced by a N, S, or O nucleophile. Compared with traditional Mitsunobu reaction, non-acidic pre-nucleophiles can be used, and the reaction proceeds with retention of configuration. This operationally simple, highly efficient protocol can be used for some natural products and small-molecule drugs containing hydroxy-group.

Geminal diacetates have been used as sustainable acyl donors for enzymatic acylation of chiral and nonchiral alcohols. Especially, it was revealed that geminal diacetates showed higher reactivity than vinyl acetate for hydrolases that are sensitive to acetaldehyde. Under optimized conditions for enzymatic acylation, several synthetically relevant saturated and unsaturated acetates of various primary alcohols were obtained in very high yields up to 98% without E/Z isomerization of the double bond. Subsequently, the acyl donor was recreated from the resulting aldehyde and reused constantly in acylation. Therefore, the developed process is characterized by high atomic efficiency. Moreover, it was shown that acylation using geminal diacetates resulted in remarkable regioselectivity by discriminating among the primary and secondary hydroxyl groups in 1-phenyl-1,3-propanediol providing exclusively 3-acetoxy-1-phenyl-propan-1-ol in good yield. Further, enzymatic kinetic resolution (EKR) and chemoenzymatic dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) protocols were developed using geminal diacetate as an acylating agent, resulting in chiral acetates in high yields up to 94% with enantiomeric excesses exceeding 99%.

Deoxyfluorination is a primary method for the formation of C?F bonds. Bespoke reagents are commonly used because of issues associated with the low reactivity of metal fluorides. Reported here is the development of a simple strategy for deoxyfluorination, using first-row transition-metal fluorides, and it overcomes these limitations. Using CuF2 as an exemplar, activation of an O-alkylisourea adduct, formed in situ, allows effective nucleophilic fluoride transfer to a range of primary and secondary alcohols. Spectroscopic investigations have been used to probe the origin of the enhanced reactivity of CuF2. The utility of the process in enabling 18F-radiolabeling is also presented.
