The immobilized resting-cell of Geotrichum candidum was used as a catalyst for the reduction of a ketone in a semi-continuous flow process using supercritical carbon dioxide for the first time; it was also applied for the asymmetric reduction of a ketone

Most ligands applied for asymmetric hydrogenation are synthesized via multistep reactions with expensive chemical reagents. Herein, a series of novel and easily accessed cinchona-alkaloid-based NNP ligands have been developed in two steps. By combining [Ir(COD)Cl]2, 39 ketones including aromatic, heteroaryl, and alkyl ketones have been hydrogenated, all affording valuable chiral alcohols with 96.0-99.9% ee. A plausible reaction mechanism was discussed by NMR, HRMS, and DFT, and an activating model involving trihydride was verified.

The Noyori-Ikariya (arene)Ru(II)/TsDPEN precatalyst has been anchored to amorphous silica and DAVISIL through the η6-coordinated arene ligand via a straightforward synthesis and the derived systems, (arene)Ru(II)/TsDPEN@silica and (arene)Ru(II)/TsDPEN@DAVISIL, form highly efficient catalysts for the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of a range of electron-rich and electron-poor aromatic ketones, giving good conversion and excellent ee's under mild reaction conditions. Moreover, catalyst generated in situ immediately prior to addition of substrate and hydrogen donor, by reaction of silica-supported [(arene)RuCl2]2 with (S,S)-TsDPEN, was as efficient as that generated from its preformed counterpart [(arene)Ru{(S,S)-TsDPEN}Cl]@silica. Gratifyingly, the initial TOFs (up to 1085 h?1) and ee's (96–97 %) obtained with these catalysts either rivalled or outperformed those previously reported for catalysts supported by either silica or polymer immobilized through one of the nitrogen atoms of TsDPEN. While the high ee's were also maintained during recycle studies, the conversion dropped steadily over the first three runs due to gradual leaching of the ruthenium.

Enzyme stereoselectivity control is still a major challenge. To gain insight into the molecular basis of enzyme stereo-recognition and expand the source of antiPrelog carbonyl reductase toward β-ketoesters, rational enzyme design aiming at stereoselectivity inversion was performed. The designed variant Q139G switched the enzyme stereoselectivity toward β-ketoesters from Prelog to antiPrelog, providing corresponding alcohols in high enantiomeric purity (89.1–99.1 % ee). More importantly, the well-known trade-off between stereoselectivity and activity was not found. Q139G exhibited higher catalytic activity than the wildtype enzyme, the enhancement of the catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km) varied from 1.1- to 27.1-fold. Interestingly, the mutant Q139G did not lead to reversed stereoselectivity toward aromatic ketones. Analysis of enzyme–substrate complexes showed that the structural flexibility of β-ketoesters and a newly formed cave together facilitated the formation of the antiPrelog-preferred conformation. In contrast, the relatively large and rigid structure of the aromatic ketones prevents them from forming the antiPrelog-preferred conformation.

The Ru-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of ketones with chiral diamine and monodentate achiral phosphine has been developed. A wide range of ketones were hydrogenated to afford the corresponding chiral secondary alcohols in good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 98.1% ee). In addition, an appropriate mechanism for the asymmetric hydrogenation was proposed and verified by NMR spectroscopy.

In this study, an alcohol dehydrogenase derived from Lactobacillus kefir (LkADH) was engineered and a simple and practical bioreduction system was developed for the preparation of (R)-2-chloro-1-(2, 4-dichlorophenyl) ethanol ((R)-CDPO), a key intermediate for the synthesis of antifungal drugs. Through active pocket iterative saturation mutagenesis, mutant LkADH-D18 (Y190C/V196L/M206H/D150H) was obtained with high stereoselectivity (99% ee, R vs 87% ee, S) and increased activity (0.44 μmol·min?1·mg?1). LkADH-D18 demonstrated NAD(P)H regeneration capability using a high concentration of isopropanol (IPA) as a co-substrate. Using 40% IPA (v/v), 400 mM of (R)-CDPO (90.1 g·L-1) was obtained via complete substrate conversion using 40 mg·mL?1 LkADH-D18 wet cells. The biocatalytic process catalyzed at constant pH with the cheap co-solvent IPA contributed to improved isolated yield of (R)-CDPO (97%), lower reaction cost, and simpler downstream purification, indicating the potential utility of LkADH-D18 in future industrial applications.

New chiral C2-symmetric bis(phosphinite) ligands containing imine group were synthesized from 1-({[(1R,2R)-2-{[(2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)methylidene] amino}cyclohexyl]- imino}methyl)- naphthalen-2-ol and two equivalents of Ph2PCl, (i-Pr)2PCl or (Cy)2PCl, in high yields. Binuclear C2-symmetric half sandwich η6-p-cymene-Ru(II) complexes of the chiral phosphinite ligands were synthesized by treating of [Ru(η6-p-cymene)(μ-Cl)Cl]2 with the phosphinites in 1:1 M ratio in CH2Cl2. Their catalytic activities in asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) were investigated for the reaction of acetophenone derivatives with isopropyl alcohol. The corresponding optically active secondary alcohols were obtained in excellent levels of conversion (96–99%) and moderate enantioselectivity (up to 60% ee). Among three complexes investigated, complex 4 was the most efficient one.

, (2020/10/14)
The deracemization of benzylic alcohols has been achieved using a redox-driven one-pot two-step process. The racemic alcohols were oxidized by bis(methoxypropyl) ether and oxygen to give the ketone intermediates, followed by an asymmetric transfer hydrogenation with a chiral ruthenium catalyst. This compatible oxidation/reduction process gave the enantiomerically enriched alcohols with up to 95% ee values.
