D-glutamine is a D type stereoisomer of glutamine which is involved in many metabolic processes. Seeking lower-cost and industrially scalable approaches for the synthesis of D-glutamine is very valuable both in academic career and potential applications. Herein, we developed a novel efficient chemoenzymatic strategy for producing D-glutamine. Initially, DL-glutamine was chemically prepared with cheap and accessible DL-glutamic acid as raw material. Subsequently, the L-glutamine among the racemic mixture was selectively hydrolyzed to L-glutamic acid by Escherichia coli whole-cell system which expressed L-aminopeptidase D-Ala-esterase/amidase (DmpA) from Ochrobactrum anthropi. The left D-glutamine was obtained by isoelectric point precipitation with 70% of the theoretical yield. Furthermore, we optimized enzymatic resolution conditions to determine the optimum parameters as pH 8, 30 °C, 0.1% (v/v) Triton X-100, and 1 mM Mn2+. These results suggested that our strategy might be potentially usable for the synthesis of D-glutamine in industrial productions.

Versatile synthesis of the teratogenic, TNFα-modulatory, and antiangiogenic thalidomide analogue 2-(2,6-dioxopiperidine-3-yl)phthalimidine (1) and its direct antiangiogenic properties are described. With thalidomide or thalidomide derivatives as precursors, the synthesis involved either carbonyl reduction/thiation-desulfurization or carbonyl reduction/acyliminium ion reduction protocols. Compared to earlier studies with thalidomide, which was only active with microsomal treatment, 1 exhibited marginal inhibitory activity in the rat aortic ring assay, thereby demonstrating the requirement for metabolic activation.
