The epoxide hydrolase (EH) from Agrobacterium radiobacter AD1 wild type (ArWT) and its Tyr215Phe mutant were compared for the biocatalyzed hydrolytic kinetic resolution (BHKR) of 2-, 3- and 4-pyridyloxirane. The regioselectivity of the oxirane ring opening as well as the substrate concentration limit and the inhibitory effect of the diol were determined. A gram scale preparation of enantiopure 2-pyridyloxirane (ee>98%) at a concentration as high as 127 mM (15.5 g/L) could be achieved with each of these two enzymes.

The generation of highly unstable chloromethylmagnesium chloride in a continuous flow reactor and its reaction with aldehydes and ketones is reported. With this strategy, chlorohydrins and epoxides were synthesized within a total residence time of only 2.6 s. The outcome of the reaction can be tuned by simply using either a basic or an acidic quench. Very good to excellent isolated yields, up to 97%, have been obtained for most cases (30 examples).

Halohydrin dehalogenase from Arthrobacter sp. AD2 catalysed azidolysis of epoxides with high regioselectivity and low to moderate (S)-enantioselectivity (E?=?1–16). Mutation of the asparagine 178 to alanine (N178A) showed increased enantioselectivity towards styrene oxide derivatives and glycidyl ethers. Conversion of aromatic epoxides was catalysed by HheA-N178A with complete enantioselectivity, however the regioselectivity was reduced. As a result of the enzyme-catalysed reaction, enantiomerically pure (S)-β-azido alcohols and (R)-α-azido alcohols (ee???99%) were obtained.
