Discovery and Redesign of a Family VIII Carboxylesterase with High (S)-Selectivity toward Chiral sec-Alcohols

Highly enantioselective lipase has been widely utilized in the preparation of versatile enantiopure chiral sec-alcohols through kinetic or dynamic kinetic resolution. Lipase is intrinsically (R)-selective, and it is difficult to obtain (S)-selective lipase. Recent crystal structures of a family VIII carboxylesterase have revealed that the spatial array of its catalytic triad is the mirror image of that of lipase but with a catalytic triad that is distinct from lipase. We, therefore, hypothesized that the family VIII carboxylesterase may exhibit (S)-enantioselectivity toward sec-alcohols similar to (S)-selective serine protease, whose catalytic triad is also spatially arrayed as its mirror image. In this study, a homologous enzyme (carboxylesterase from Proteobacteria bacterium SG_bin9, PBE) of a known family VIII carboxylesterase (pdb code: 4IVK) was prepared, which showed not only moderate (S)-selectivity toward sec-alcohols such as 3-butyn-2-ol and 1-phenylethyl alcohol but also (R)-selectivity toward particular sec-alcohols among the substrates explored. Furthermore, the (S)-selectivity of PBE has been significantly improved by rational redesign based on molecular modeling. Molecular modeling identified a binding pocket composed of Ser381, Ala383, and Arg408 for the methyl substituent of (R)-1-phenylethyl acetate and suggested that larger residues may increase the enantioselectivity by interfering with the binding of the slow-reacting enantiomer. As predicted, substituting Ser381with larger residues (Phe, Tyr, and Trp) significantly improved the (S)-selectivity of PBE toward all sec-alcohols explored, even the substrates toward which the wild-type PBE exhibits (R)-selectivity. For instance, the enantioselectivity toward 3-butyn-2-ol and 1-phenylethyl alcohol was improved from E = 5.5 and 36.1 to E = 2001 and 882, respectively, by single mutagenesis (S381F).

Synthesis, characterization and catalytic performance in enantioselective reactions by mesoporous silica materials functionalized with chiral thiourea-amine ligand

Chiral heterogeneous catalysts have been synthesized by grafting of silyl derivatives of (1R, 2R)- or (1S, 2S)-1,2-diphenylethane-1,2-diamine on SBA-15 mesoporous support. The mesoporous material SBA-15 and so-prepared chiral heterogeneous catalysts were characterized by a combination of different techniques such as X-ray diffractometry (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area. Results showed that (1R, 2R)- and (1S, 2S)-1,2-diphenylethane-1,2-diamine were successively immobilized on SBA-15 mesoporous support. Chiral heterogeneous catalysts and their homogenous counterparts were tested in enantioselective transfer hydrogenation of aromatic ketones and enantioselective Michael addition of acetylacetone to β-nitroolefin derivatives. The catalysts demonstrated notably high catalytic conversions (up to 99%) with moderate enantiomeric excess (up to 30% ee) for the heterogeneous enantioselective transfer hydrogenation. The catalytic performances for enantioselective Michael reaction showed excellent activities (up to 99%) with poor enantioselectivities. Particularly, the chiral heterogeneous catalysts could be readily recycled for Michael reaction and reused in three consecutive catalytic experiments with no loss of catalytic efficacies.

Exploration of highly electron-rich manganese complexes in enantioselective oxidation catalysis; A focus on enantioselective benzylic oxidation

The direct enantioselective hydroxylation of benzylic C-H bonds to form chiral benzylic alcohols represents a challenging transformation. Herein, we report on the exploration of new biologically inspired manganese and iron complexes bearing highly electron-rich aminopyridine ligands containing 4-pyrrolidinopyridine moieties ((S,S)-1, (R,R)-1, 2 and 5) in combination with chiral bis-pyrrolidine and N,N-cyclohexanediamine backbones in enantioselective oxidation catalysis with aqueous H2O2. The current manganese complexes outperform the analogous manganese complexes containing 4-dimethylaminopyridine moieties (3 and 4) in benzylic oxidation reactions in terms of alcohol yield while keeping similar ee values (～60% ee), which is attributed to the higher basicity of the 4-pyrrolidinopyridine group. A detailed investigation of different carboxylic acid additives in enantioselective benzylic oxidation provides new insights into how to rationally enhance enantioselectivities by means of proper tuning of the environment around the catalytic active site, and has resulted in the selection of Boc-l-Tert-leucine as the preferred additive. Using these optimized conditions, manganese complex 2 was shown to be effective in the enantioselective benzylic oxidation of a series of arylalkane substrates with up to 50% alcohol yield and 62% product ee. A final set of experiments also highlights the use of the new 4-pyrrolidinopyridine-based complexes in the asymmetric epoxidation of olefins (up to 98% epoxide yield and >99% ee).
