Here the synthetic utility of fluoroacetate dehalogenase RPA1163 is explored for the production of enantiomerically pure (R)-α-fluorocarboxylic acids and (R)-α-hydroxylcarboxylic acids via kinetic resolution of racemic α-fluorocarboxylic acids. While wild-type (WT) RPA1163 shows high thermostability and fairly wide substrate scope, many interesting yet poorly or moderately accepted substrates exist. In order to solve this problem and to develop upscaled production, in silico calculations and semirational mutagenesis were employed. Residue W185 was engineered to alanine, serine, threonine, or asparagine. The two best mutants, W185N and W185T, showed significantly improved performance in the reactions of these substrates, while in silico calculations shed light on the origin of these improvements. Finally, 10 α-fluorocarboxylic acids and 10 α-hydroxycarboxylic acids were prepared on a gram scale via kinetic resolution enabled by WT, W185T, or W185N. This work expands the biocatalytic toolbox and allows a deep insight into the fluoroacetate dehalogenase catalyzed C-F cleavage mechanism.

The development and characterization of enantioselective catalytic kinetic resolution of allylic alcohols through asymmetric isomerization with chiral BINOL derivatives-based alkoxides as bifunctional Br?nsted base catalysts were described in the study. A number of chiral BINOL derivatives-based alkoxides were synthesized, and their structure-enantioselectivity correlation study in asymmetric isomerization identified a promising chiral Br?nsted base catalyst, which afforded various chiral secondary allylic alcohols (ee up to 99%, S factor up to >200). In the mechanistic study, alkoxide species were identified as active species and the phenol group of BINOL largely affected the high reactivity and enantioselectivity via hydrogen bonding between the chiral Br?nsted base catalyst and substrates. The strategy is the first successful synthesis strategy of various chiral secondary allylic alcohols through enantioselective transition-metal-free base-catalyzed isomerization. The applicability of the strategy had been demonstrated by the synthesis of the bioactive natural product (+)-veraguensin.

Enantiopure 2-hydroxy acids (2-HAs) are important intermediates for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. Deracemization of racemic 2-HAs into the corresponding single enantiomers represents an economical and highly efficient approach for synthesizing chiral 2-HAs in industry. In this work, a novel ketoacid reductase from Leuconostoc lactis (LlKAR) with higher activity and substrate tolerance towards aromatic α-ketoacids was discovered by genome mining, and then its enzymatic properties were characterized. Accordingly, an engineered Escherichia coli (HADH-LlKAR-GDH) co-expressing 2-hydroxyacid dehydrogenase, LlKAR, and glucose dehydrogenase was constructed for efficient deracemization of racemic 2-HAs. Most of the racemic 2-HAs were deracemized to their (R)-isomers at high yields and enantiomeric purity. In the case of racemic 2-chloromandelic acid, as much as 300 mM of substrate was completely transformed into the optically pure (R)-2-chloromandelic acid (> 99% enantiomeric excess) with a high productivity of 83.8 g L?1 day?1 without addition of exogenous cofactor, which make this novel whole-cell biocatalyst more promising and competitive in practical application.

A ruthenocenyl phosphino-oxazoline-ruthenium complex (RuPHOX?Ru) catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of α-aryl keto acids has been successfully developed, affording the corresponding chiral α-aryl α-hydroxy carboxylic acids in high yields and with up to 97% ee. The reaction could be performed on a gram scale with a relatively low catalyst loading (up to 5000 S/C) and the resulting products can be transformed to several chiral building blocks, biologically active compounds and chiral drugs. (Figure presented.).

Von Langermann, Jan,Temmel, Erik,Seidel-Morgenstern, Andreas,Lorenz, Heike
, p. 721 - 728 (2015/03/30)
The solid phase behavior of a series of monosubstituted F-, Cl-, Br-, I-, and CH3- and two 2,4-halogen-disubstituted 2-hydroxy-2-phenylacetic acid (mandelic acid) derivatives was investigated. The study includes detailed information about melting temperature, melting enthalpy, X-ray diffraction data, as well as selected binary phase diagrams of the respective chiral systems. Aside from the known metastable conglomerate 2-chloromandelic acid, evidence for two more metastable conglomerates was found.

By using lipase PS-30 as catalyst, the kinetic resolution of a series of racemic mandelate esters has been achieved via stereoselective acylation. The value of kinetic enantiomeric ratio (E) reached up to 197.5. Substituent effect is briefly discussed.

, p. 10816 - 10823 (2015/02/19)
The structures of 27 monosubstituted mandelic acids, including several of their polymorphs, plus unsubstituted mandelic acid itself (two polymorphs) are investigated for structural similarity. The results, presented pictorially as a structural relationship plot, show that rather more structures are built up from the carboxyl-chain hydroxyl hydrogen bonded dimer than from the conventional carboxylic acid dimer. The results show how all the structures are related and, based on the two types of dimer, the degree of similarity that they possess. Some structures with Z′ > 1 contain both sorts of dimers and there are many examples of isostructural sets within the structures so far determined. We also present an example where analysing similarity in related families of structures highlights a structure that should be present and which has indeed then proceeded to be synthesised and determined.

A facile and efficient one-pot, single-step method for deracemizing a broad range of 2-hydroxyacids to (R)-2-hydroxyacids was established by combination of resting cells of an (S)-hydroxyacid dehydrogenase-producing microorganism and an (R)-ketoacid reductase-producing microorganism.

Mendiola, Javier,Garcia-Cerrada, Susana,De Frutos, Oscar,De La Puente, Maria Luz
experimental part, p. 1312 - 1316 (2012/10/18)
The resolution of different mandelic acids using the lipase PS Amano SD enzyme is described. By supporting the lyophilized enzyme over Celite, both the activity and the stability of lipase PS in organic media were significantly improved, enabling the robust resolution scale-up of 3-fluoromandelic acid. The methodology was extended to produce a range of optically pure (R)-mandelic acids, avoiding tedious extractions or chromatography.
