Optically active 2-deuterio-cyclopentanone and 2-deuterio-cyclohexanone have been prepared by microbiological reduction of 2-deuterio α,β-unsaturated cyclic ketones by Beauveria sulfurescens.
PROTIODESILYLATION REACTIONS OF β AND γ-HYDROXYSILANES: DEUTERIUM LABELING AND SILICON-DIRECTED EPOXIDE OPENINGS

Protiodesilylation reactions of β-hydroxysilanes are catalyzed by crown ether, can be used to introduce deuterium, and can be used to prepare silicon-free products of silicon-directed epoxide openings; similar reactions of γ-hydroxysilanes are possible.

Cyclohexane oxygenase, from Acinetobacter NCIB 9871, has been incubated with (2S,6S)- left bracket 2,6-**2H//2 right bracket - and (2R)- left bracket 2-**2H//1 right bracket cyclohexanone. The resulting labeled epsilon -caprolactone (2-oxepanone) samples were degraded to 1-pentanol, which was esterified by using ( minus )-camphanyl chloride. Analysis of the camphanates by deuterium NMR spectroscopy, using Eu(dpm)//3, showed that the conversion of ketone to lactone had in each case proceeded with complete retention of configuration at the migrating carbon center. A similar degradation of (2R)- left bracket 2-**2H//1 right bracket cyclohexanone itself showed that reduction of left bracket 2-**2H//1 right bracket -cyclohex-2-enone by Beauveria bassiana ATCC 7159 is also completely stereoselective. A method has been developed for assessing the enantioselectivity of enzymes toward racemic substrate mixtures.
