Enzymatic kinetic resolution of chiral sulfoxides-an enantiocomplementary approach

A new enzymatic assay for the preparation of chiral sulfoxides that is enantiocomplementary to the known (S)-enantiomer-reducing activity of methionine sulfoxide reductase A (MsrA) is described. To this end, we have utilized the enzyme DMSO reductase (DmsABC), recently discovered by us being highly upregulated in stationary phase E. coli bacteria.

Synthesis of new optically active sulfoxides with chelating properties

Access to enantiomerically pure 2-pyridinylmethyl sulfoxides and β-imino sulfoxides was sought.The latter were obtained in tautomeric mixtures with their enamines by condensation of optically active β-keto sulfoxides with primary amines. 2-Pyridinylmethyl
