Unprecedented enantioselective resolution copolymerization of racemic cis-internal epoxides and anhydrides was mediated by dinuclear aluminum complexes with multiple chirality, affording optically active polyesters with two contiguous stereogenic centers, and the unreacted substrates in good enantioselectivity. Unexpected stereoconvergence is observed in this resolution copolymerization, where the selectivity factor for the enantioselective formation of copolymer significantly exceeds the kinetic resolution coefficient based on the unreacted epoxide at various conversions. Catalytic activity and copolymer enantioselectivity are strongly influenced by the phenolate ortho-substituents of the ligand set, as well as the axial linker and its chirality. An enantiopure binaphthol-linked bimetallic AlIII complex allows stereoconvergent access to the stereoregular semi-crystalline polyesters and a concomitant kinetic resolution of the epoxide substrates.

An environment-friendly and efficient dioxygenation of aryl alkenes for the construction of vicinal diols has been developed in water with iodine as the catalyst and tert-butylhydroperoxides (TBHPs) as the oxidant. The protocol was efficient, sustainable, and operationally simple. Detailed mechanistic studies indicated that one of the hydroxyl groups is derived from water and the other one is derived from TBHP. Additionally, the bisperoxides could be obtained in good yields with iodine as the catalyst, Na2CO3 as the additive, and propylene carbonate as the solvent, instead.

A self-sufficient nicotinamide-dependent intramolecular bio-Tishchenko-type reaction was developed. The reaction is catalyzed by alcohol dehydrogenases and proceeds through formal intramolecular hydride transfer on dialdehydes to deliver lactones. Regioselectivity on [1,1′-biphenyl]-2,2′-dicarbaldehyde substrates could be controlledviathe electronic properties of the substituents. Preparative scale synthesis provided access to substituted dibenzo[c,e]oxepin-5(7H)-ones.

β-Halohydrins bearing transformable halo- and hydroxyl groups, are easily converted into various valuable blocks in organic and pharmaceutical synthesis. A diastereoselective β-halogenation of benzylic alcohols was achieved under simple and low-cost conditions, which provided a direct synthesis of β-halohydrins. The simple reaction conditions, easily available reagents, high diastereoselectivities, and additional oxidant-free make this reaction very attractive and practical.

The search for versatile heterogeneous catalysts with multiple active sites for broad asymmetric transformations has long been of great interest, but it remains a formidable synthetic challenge. Here we demonstrate that multivariate metal-organic frameworks (MTV-MOFs) can be used as an excellent platform to engineer heterogeneous catalysts featuring multiple and cooperative active sites. An isostructural series of 2-fold interpenetrated MTV-MOFs that contain up to three different chiral metallosalen catalysts was constructed and used as efficient and recyclable heterogeneous catalysts for a variety of asymmetric sequential alkene epoxidation/epoxide ring-opening reactions. Interpenetration of the frameworks brings metallosalen units adjacent to each other, allowing cooperative activation, which results in improved efficiency and enantioselectivity over the sum of the individual parts. The fact that manipulation of molecular catalysts in MTV-MOFs can control the activities and selectivities would facilitate the design of novel multifunctional materials for enantioselective processes.

Paragraph 0091-0093, (2016/05/02)
The invention provides compositions comprising an alkene epoxidase and a selective epoxide hydrolase, such as a recombinant microorganism comprising a first heterologous nucleic acid encoding an alkene epoxidase and a second heterologous nucleic acid encoding a selective epoxide hydrolase. Exemplary alkene epoxidases include StyAB, while exemplary selective epoxide hydrolases include epoxide hydrolases from Sphingomonas, Solanum tuberosum, or Aspergillus. The invention also provides non-toxic methods of making enantiomerically pure vicinal diols or enantiomerically pure alpha-hydroxy carboxylic acids using these compositions and microorganisms.

A novel protocol for the practical and green synthesis of vicinal cis-diols from 10.0 mmol olefins by using 5.0 mmol KMnO4 as oxidant and 30.0 mmol H2O2 as co-oxidant is reported. The presented procedure is easy to carry out and enables the direct transformation of linear and cyclic alkenes to the corresponding vicinal cis-diols. The synthesis of vicinal cis-diols by dihydroxylation of olefins with a KMnO4/H2O2 system was catalyzed by in situ generated MnxOy nanoaggregates. The use of H2O2 as a co-oxidant is the key for the protocol to synthesize vicinal cis-diols in high yields, because it assists the oxidation of MnxOy nanoaggregates, which have an active role in the oxidation reaction medium.
Verification of the Major Metabolic Oxidation Path for the Naphthoyl Group in Chemoattractant Receptor-Homologous Molecule Expressed on Th2 Cells (CRTh2) Antagonist 2-(2-(1-Naphthoyl)-8-fluoro-3,4-dihydro-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indol-5(2H)-yl)acetic Acid (Setipiprant/ACT-129968)

Various racemic and enantioenriched (trans)-X,Y-dihydroxy-X,Y-dihydronaphthoyl analogues as well as X-hydroxy-naphthoyl analogues of CRTh2 antagonist 2-(2-(1-naphthoyl)-8-fluoro-3,4-dihydro-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indol-5(2H)-yl)acetic acid (1, Setipiprant/ACT-129968) were synthesized in order to gain insight into regio- and enantioselectivity of the metabolic oxidation of 1 and to verify the structures of four metabolites that were proposed earlier in a clinical ADME study. Analytical data of the synthetic standards were compared with data from samples of biological origin. The two major metabolites M7 and M9 were unambiguously verified as 2-(2-((trans)-3,4-dihydroxy-3,4-dihydronaphthalene-1-carbonyl)- and 2-(2-((trans)-5,6-dihydroxy-5,6-dihydronaphthalene-1-carbonyl)-8-fluoro-3,4-dihydro-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indol-5(2H)-yl)acetic acid, respectively, each composed of two enantiomers with 68% and 44% ee in favor of (+)-(3S,4S)-M7 and (+)-(5S,6S)-M9, respectively. Likewise, minor metabolites M3 and M13 were identified as 2-(8-fluoro-2-(5-hydroxy-1-naphthoyl)- and 2-(8-fluoro-2-(4-hydroxy-1-naphthoyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-5H-pyrido[4,3-b]indol-5-yl)acetic acid, respectively.
Enantioselective Cascade Biocatalysis via Epoxide Hydrolysis and Alcohol Oxidation: One-Pot Synthesis of (R)-α-Hydroxy Ketones from Meso- or Racemic Epoxides

A new type of cascade biocatalysis was developed for one-pot enantioselective conversion of a meso- or racemic epoxide to an α-hydroxy ketone in high ee via an epoxide hydrolase-catalyzed hydrolysis of the epoxide, an alcohol dehydrogenase-catalyzed oxidation of the diol intermediate, and an enzyme-catalyzed cofactor regeneration. In vitro cascade biotransformation of meso-epoxides (cyclopentene oxide 1a, cyclohexene oxide 1b, and cycloheptene oxide 1c) was achieved with cell-free extracts containing recombinant SpEH (epoxide hydrolase from Sphingomonas sp. HXN-200), BDHA (butanediol dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis BGSC1A1), and LDH (lactate dehydrogenase form Bacillus subtilis) or NOX (NADH oxidase from Lactobacillus brevis DSM 20054), respectively, giving the corresponding (R)-α-hydroxycyclopentanone 3a, (R)-α-hydroxycyclohexanone 3b, and (R)-α-hydroxycycloheptanone 3c in 98-99% ee and 70-50% conversion with TTN of NAD+-recycling of 5500-26000. Cascade catalysis with mixed cells of Escherichia coli (SpEH) and E. coli (BDHA-NOX) converted 100-300 mM meso-epoxides 1a-1c to (R)-α-hydroxy ketones 3a-3c in 98-99% ee and 85-57% conversion. Cells of E. coli (SpEH-BDHA-NOX) coexpressing all three enzymes were also proven as good catalysts for the cascade conversion of 100-200 mM meso-epoxides 1a-1c, giving (R)-α-hydroxy ketones 3a-3c in 98-99% ee and 79-52% conversion. The cascade biocatalysis for one-pot synthesis of α-hydroxy ketone in high ee was also successfully demonstrated with a racemic epoxide (1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene-1,2-oxide 1d) as the substrate. By using two whole-cells based approaches, (R)-α-hydroxytetralone 3d was obtained in 99% ee and 49-40% conversion from 20 to 5 mM racemic epoxide 1d. Preparative cascade biotransformation of cyclohexene oxide 1b gave (R)-α-hydroxycyclohexanone 3b in 98% ee with 70% isolated yield. The developed new type of cascade biocatalysis is enantioselective, green, and often high yielding. The concept might be generally applicable to produce other useful enantiopure α-hydroxy ketones from the corresponding meso- or racemic epoxides by cascade catalysis using appropriate enzymes.
