Sheet 2/2, (2008/06/13)
A method of thioacetate deprotection by providing a compound of the formula R1—S—CO—R2, and reacting the compound with a quaternary ammonium cyanide salt in the presence of a protic solvent in an inert atmosphere to convert the compound to a product of the formula R1—SH. R1 is an organic group in which the bonding to sulfur is through a saturated carbon, and R2 is an aliphatic group.

Direct and indirect evidence, of unexpected stereoselective reductase-catalysed deoxygenations of sulfoxides, was found. The deoxygenations proceeded simultaneously, with the expected dioxygenase-catalysed asymmetric sulfoxidation of sulfides, during some biotransformations with the aerobic bacterium Pseudomonas putida UV4. Stereoselective reductase-catalysed asymmetric deoxygenation of racemic alkylaryl, dialkyl and phenolic sulfoxides was observed, without evidence of the reverse sulfoxidation reaction, using anaerobic bacterial strains. A purified dimethyl sulfoxide reductase, obtained from the intact cells of the anaerobic bacterium Citrobacter braakii DMSO 11, yielded, from the corresponding racemates, enantiopure alkylaryl sulfoxide and thiosulfinate samples.
