We report on the development of high-throughput fluorogenic assay that can streamline directed evolution of enantioselective sulfoxide reductases. As a model, methionine sulfoxide reductase A (MsrA) has been evolved to expand its limited substrate scope. The resulting mutant MsrA can resolve a range of new challenging racemic sulfoxides with high efficiency including the pharmaceutically relevant albendazole sulfoxide. The simplicity and the level of throughput make this method also suitable for the screening of metagenomic libraries in future for the discovery of new enzymes with similar reactivities.

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.

supporting information, p. 9849 - 9852 (2018/07/31)
The highly enantioselective enzyme methionine sulfoxide reductase A was combined with an oxaziridine-type oxidant in a biphasic setup for the deracemization of chiral sulfoxides. Remarkably, high ee values were observed with a wide range of substrates, thus providing a practical route for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure sulfoxides.
Asymmetric Sulfinylations of N-Methylephedrine-Modified Tri- or Tetraalkyl Zincates by Symmetric Diaryl Sulfoxides

Diethylzinc was treated with 1 or 2 equiv. of AlkMgCl or PhMgBr (preferably) or with 1 equiv. of nBuLi (less efficiently) for forming species – plausibly zincates – which were sulfinylated by diaryl sulfoxides to give racemic alkyl aryl sulfoxides in yields reaching 100 %. Dialkylzinc reagents were also activated by treatments with 1 or 2 equiv. of an enantiomerically pure alkylmagnesium β-aminoalkoxide. This worked best when the alkoxide stemmed from a dialkylmagnesium reagent and an equimolar amount of N-methyl-(–)-ephedrine. This second activation mode allowed sulfinylations of what was originally the dialkylzinc reagent with diaryl sulfoxides. This generated alkyl aryl sulfoxides with enantiomeric ratios up to 93:7 in up to 100 % yield.

Symmetric diarylsulfoxides as asymmetric sulfinylating reagents for dialkylmagnesium compounds
Ruppenthal, Simon,Brückner, Reinhard
, p. 897 - 910 (2015/01/30)
At -78 °C, primary dialkylmagnesium compounds reacted with diarylsulfoxides when 1.5 equiv of the dilithium salt of (S)-BINOL was added as a promotor. Alkyl aryl sulfoxides resulted in up to quantitative yield and with up to 97% ee. This demonstrates the feasibility of asymmetric sulfinylations by achiral sulfinylating agents (from the perspective of Alkyl2Mg) as well as the feasibility of asymmetric sulfoxide-magnesium exchanges (from the perspective of Ar2SO).

Enantiopure sulfoxides are valuable precursors of organosulfur compounds with broad application in organic and pharmaceutical chemistry. An unprecedented strategy for obtaining highly enantioenriched sulfoxides based on a hydrogenative kinetic resolution using Rh-complexes of phosphine-phosphite ligands as catalysts is reported. After optimization, highly efficient conditions for the kinetic resolution of racemic sulfoxides have been identified. This methodology has been applied to a set of racemic aralkyl or aryl vinyl sulfoxides and allowed the isolation of both recovered and reduced products in excellent yields and enantioselectivities (up to 99% and 97% ee, respectively; 16 examples).

Lithiooxiranes [LiCR1(O)CR2R3, R1 = H, Me; R2/R3 = H/Ph, H/tBu, Me/Ph], generated by sulfoxide-lithium exchange from stereodefined sulfinyl epoxides (with use of PhLi or tBuLi, THF, at or below -90 °C), were employed for the stereospecific reagent-controlled homologation of boronic esters R0-Bpin (R0 = BnCH2, allyl, cHex, Ph). Addition of TBSOTf to the intermediate ate complexes gave β-silyloxyboronates that were converted to vicinal diol monosilyl ethers by oxidative work-up with aq. NaOOH. The 2°/2° (4-32 %, dr > 98:2), 2°/3° (21-66 %, dr ≥ 65:35), and 3°/3° (59-68 %, dr ≥ 95:5) contiguous stereodiad-containing compounds created in this manner were typically obtained in a highly stereocontrolled manner. In general, cis-sulfinyl epoxides afforded anti-like stereodiads, whereas trans-sulfinyl epoxides afforded syn-like stereodiads; however, as a result of its suspected configurational instability, LiCMe(O)CHPh gave anti-like 2°/3° motifs regardless of sulfinyl epoxide stereochemistry.
