, p. 19916 - 19924 (2014)
Accessing chirally pure cis-diols from arenes using micro-organisms over-expressing toluene dioxygenase (TDO) is now well established, but the conversions remain low for the more toxic and volatile substrates. For such arenes, improved production has alre
A comparative study of the synthesis of 3-substituted catechols using an enzymatic and a chemoenzymatic method

A series of cis-dihydrodiol metabolites, available from the bacterial dioxygenase-catalysed oxidation of monosubstituted benzene substrates using Pseudomonas putida UV4 , have been converted to the corresponding catechols using both a heterogeneous catalyst (Pd/c) and a naphthalene cis-diol dehydrogenase enzyme present in whole cells of the recombinant strain Escherichia coli DH5α(pUC129: nar B). A comparative study of the merits of both routes to 3-substituted catechols has been carried out and the two methods have been found to be complementary. A similarity in mechanism for catechol formation under both enzymatic and chemoenzymatic conditions, involving regioselective oxidation of the hydroxyl group at C-1, has been found using deuterium labelled toluene cis-dihydrodiols. The potential, of combining a biocatalytic step (dioxygenase-catalysed cis-dihydroxylation) with a chemocatalytic step (Pd/C-catalysed dehydrogenation), into a one-pot route to catechols, from the parent substituted benzene substrates, has been realised.
Enzymatic and chemoenzymatic synthesis and stereochemical assignment of cis-dihydrodiol derivatives of monosubstituted benzenes

Toluene dioxygenase-catalysed oxidation of mono-substituted benzene substrates (R = F, Cl, Br, I, Me, Et, CH2OAc, CH=CH2, C=CH, CF3, CN, OMe, OEt, SMe) in growing cultures of Pseudomonas putida UV4 yielded the corresponding cis-dihydrodiol metabolites. Palladium-catalysed cross-coupling of cis-(1S,2S)-1,2-dihydroxy-3-iodocyclohexa-3,5-diene with a range of tributyltin compounds provided a chemoenzymatic route to a further series of cis-dihydrodiol derivatives of monosubstituted benzenes (R = D, CH2CH=CH2, Bun, SEt, SPr1, SBu1, SPh, SC6H4Me-4). The enantiopurities and absolute configurations of the cis-dihydrodiols, obtained by both enzymatic and chemoenzymatic routes, were determined by several new methods including 1H NMR spectroscopic analysis of the bis-MTPA esters of the 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione cycloadducts, X-ray crystallography, circular dichroism spectroscopy and stereochemical correlation.
Enantioselective Bacterial Biotransformation Routes to cis-Diol Metabolites of Monosubstituted Benzenes, Naphthalene and Benzocycloalkenes of Either Absolute Configuration

, p. 117 - 118 (2007/10/02)
Enzyme-catalysed kinetic resolution and asymmetric dihydroxylation routes to enantiopure cis-diol metabolites of arenes and benzocycloalkenes of either absolute configuration have been developed using appropriate strains of the bacterium Pseudomonas putida.
