Amino Acid-Functionalized Metal-Organic Frameworks for Asymmetric Base–Metal Catalysis

We report a strategy to develop heterogeneous single-site enantioselective catalysts based on naturally occurring amino acids and earth-abundant metals for eco-friendly asymmetric catalysis. The grafting of amino acids within the pores of a metal-organic framework (MOF), followed by post-synthetic metalation with iron precursor, affords highly active and enantioselective (>99 % ee for 10 examples) catalysts for hydrosilylation and hydroboration of carbonyl compounds. Impressively, the MOF-Fe catalyst displayed high turnover numbers of up to 10 000 and was recycled and reused more than 15 times without diminishing the enantioselectivity. MOF-Fe displayed much higher activity and enantioselectivity than its homogeneous control catalyst, likely due to the formation of robust single-site catalyst in the MOF through site-isolation.

An industrial perspective fermentative bioreduction of aromatic ketones by Penicillium rubens VIT SS1 and Penicillium citrinum VIT SS2

Microbial mediated, especially the fungi mediated asymmetric reduction of the ketone is one of the most promising tools for the synthesis of chiral alcohols. Many fungal cultures were isolated from soil and screened for the stereo selective bioreduction of acetophenone. The potential isolates are characterised using molecular techniques and found to be Penicillium rubens VIT SS1 (Genbank ID: MK063869) and Penicillium citrinum VIT SS2 (Genbank ID: MW960208). Both the isolates were tested for the bioreduction of few aromatic ketones such as 4-fluoro acetophenone, 3-hydroxy acetophenone, and oxcarbazepine, which are the key chiral intermediates of various pharmaceutical drugs. The P. rubens VIT SS1 produced (S)-alcohol obeying Prelog’s rule, and P. citrinum was anti-Prelog configuration in nature. Preparatory scale reactions were conducted using the optimised bioreduction process, and the keto loading was significantly increased by 12-fold (from 0.5 to 6 g/L) with >99% conversion and >98% enantiomeric excess. The study discloses the vast prospective approach of exploring filamentous fungi for sustainable synthesis of chiral alcohols in an environment-friendly, novel, and cost competent way.

Application of robust ketoreductase from Hansenula polymorpha for the reduction of carbonyl compounds

Enzyme-catalysed asymmetric reduction of ketones is an attractive tool for the production of chiral building blocks or precursors for the synthesis of bioactive compounds. Expression of robust ketoreductase (KRED) from Hansenula polymorpha was upscaled and applied for the asymmetric reduction of 31 prochiral carbonyl compounds (aliphatic and aromatic ketones, diketones and β-keto esters) to the corresponding optically pure hydroxy compounds. Biotransformations were performed with the purified recombinant KRED together with NADP+ recycling glucose dehydrogenase (GDH, Bacillus megaterium), both overexpressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). Maximum activity of KRED for biotransformation of ethyl-2-methylacetoacetate achieved by the high cell density cultivation was 2499.7 ± 234 U g–1DCW and 8.47 ± 0.40 U·mg–1E, respectively. The KRED from Hansenula polymorpha is a very versatile enzyme with broad substrate specificity and high activity towards carbonyl substrates with various structural features. Among the 36 carbonyl substrates screened in this study, the KRED showed activity with 31, with high enantioselectivity in most cases. With several ketones, the Hansenula polymorpha KRED catalysed preferentially the formation of the (R)-secondary alcohols, which is highly valued.

Chiral Iron(II)-Catalysts within Valinol-Grafted Metal-Organic Frameworks for Enantioselective Reduction of Ketones

The development of highly efficient and enantioselective heterogeneous catalysts based on earth-abundant elements and inexpensive chiral ligands is essential for environment-friendly and economical production of optically active compounds. We report a strategy of synthesizing chiral amino alcohol-functionalized metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to afford highly enantioselective single-site base-metal catalysts for asymmetric organic transformations. The chiral MOFs (vol-UiO) were prepared by grafting of chiral amino alcohol such as l-valinol within the pores of aldehyde-functionalized UiO-MOFs via formation of imine linkages. The metalation of vol-UiO with FeCl2 in THF gives amino alcohol coordinated octahedral FeII species of vol-FeCl(THF)3 within the MOFs as determined by X-ray absorption spectroscopy. Upon activation with LiCH2SiMe3, vol-UiO-Fe catalyzed hydrosilylation and hydroboration of a range of aliphatic and aromatic carbonyls to afford the corresponding chiral alcohols with enantiomeric excesses up to 99%. Vol-UiO-Fe catalysts have high turnover numbers of up to 15 ?000 and could be reused at least 10 times without any loss of activity and enantioselectivity. The spectroscopic, kinetic, and computational studies suggest iron-hydride as the catalytic species, which undergoes enantioselective 1,2-insertion of carbonyl to give an iron-alkoxide intermediate. The subsequent σ-bond metathesis between Fe-O bond and Si-H bond of silane produces chiral silyl ether. This work highlights the importance of MOFs as the tunable molecular material for designing chiral solid catalysts based on inexpensive natural feedstocks such as chiral amino acids and base-metals for asymmetric organic transformations.

Synthesis and characterization of Pd(II) and Ru(II) complexes of tetradentate N,N,N,N-(Diphosphinomethyl)amine ligands: Catalytic properties in transfer hydrogenation and heck coupling reactions

– Tetradentate N,N,N,N-(diphosphinomethyl)amine ligands and their Pd(II) and Ru(II) complexes were synthesized under a nitrogen atmosphere using Schlenk technique. The synthesized ligands and the complexes were characterized with 1H- and 31P-NMR, FT-IR, TG/DTA, and elemental analysis techniques. Pd(II) Complexes were used as catalysts in Heck coupling reactions and Ru(II) complexes were tried in transfer hydrogenation reactions of acetophenone derivatives. According to the results, L4-Pd(II) complex showed the best catalytic activity in the Heck coupling reaction of p-methylbromobenzene with o-chlorostyrene. It was confirmed that the reduction of bromo and chloroacetophenones in all catalysts the conversions were higher. The results showed that Ru(II) complexes as efficient catalysts and up to 99percent conversions was occurred with bromo and chloro acetophenones in K2CO3/isopropyl alcohol media at 80 °C.

This protocol features wide substrate scope and functional group tolerance, thereby providing easy access to a key intermediate of crizotinib.

Optimisation, scope and advantages of the synthesis of chiral phenylethanols using whole seeds of Bauhinia variegata L. (Fabaceae) as a new and stereoselective bio-reducer of carbonyl compounds

With the aim of finding new methods for environmentally friendly synthesis of chiral phenylethanols, a screening was carried out to identify seeds that could be used as a biocatalyst capable of reducing stereoselectively prochiral ketones. As a result, seeds of Bauhinia variegata L. (Fabaceae) were identified as being an efficient and stereoselective biological reducer of acetophenone to produce (S)-1-phenylethanol (conversion of 98% and 99 e.e.%). Then, to optimise the reductive process, the effects of some variables such as temperature, load of substrate, pH, co-solvent, and reuse and storability of the seeds as a function of time were established. Utilising the optimal reaction conditions, nineteen substituted acetophenones were reduced to their corresponding chiral alcohols with a conversion ranging from 30% to 98% and enantiomeric excess of between 65% and >99%, and in addition, useful key intermediates were also obtained by the synthesis of drugs. The scope and advantages of this new biocatalytic synthetic method are also discussed.Research highlights A screening was carried out to identify seeds that could be used as a biocatalyst Seeds of Bauhinia variegata have been identified as an efficient biocatalyst to reduce carbonyl compounds. Acetophenone and substituted acetophenones were reduced with high stereoselectivity. Some key intermediates were synthetised using this methodology. Seeds can be stored for twenty-four months without loss of activity.
