CYP505E3: A Novel Self-Sufficient ω-7 In-Chain Hydroxylase

The self-sufficient cytochrome P450 monooxygenase CYP505E3 from Aspergillus terreus catalyzes the regioselective in-chain hydroxylation of alkanes, fatty alcohols, and fatty acids at the ω-7 position. It is the first reported P450 to give regioselective in-chain ω-7 hydroxylation of C10–C16 n-alkanes, thereby enabling the one step biocatalytic synthesis of rare alcohols such as 5-dodecanol and 7-tetradecanol. It shows more than 70 percent regioselectivity for the eighth carbon from one methyl terminus, and displays remarkably high activity towards decane (TTN≈8000) and dodecane (TTN≈2000). CYP505E3 can be used to synthesize the high-value flavour compound δ-dodecalactone via two routes: 1) conversion of dodecanoic acid into 5-hydroxydodecanoic acid (24 percent regioselectivity), which at low pH lactonises to δ-dodecalactone, and 2) conversion of 1-dodecanol into 1,5-dodecanediol (55 percent regioselectivity), which can be converted into δ-dodecalactone by horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase.

Loss of benzene to generate an enolate anion by a site-specific double-hydrogen transfer during CID fragmentation of o-alkyl ethers of ortho-hydroxybenzoic acids

Collision-induced dissociation of anions derived from orffco- alkyloxybenzoic acids provides a facile way of producing gaseous enolate anions. The alkyloxyphenyl anion produced after an initial loss of CO2 undergoes elimination of a benzene molecule by a double-hydrogen transfer mechanism, unique to the ortho isomer, to form an enolate anion. Deuterium labeling studies confirmed that the two hydrogen atoms transferred in the benzene loss originate from positions 1 and 2 of the alkyl chain. An initial transfer of a hydrogen atom from the C-l position forms a phenyl anion and a carbonyl compound, both of which remain closely associated as an ion/neutral complex. The complex breaks either directly to give the phenyl anion by eliminating the neutral carbonyl compound, or to form an enolate anion by transferring a hydrogen atom from the C-2 position and eliminating a benzene molecule in the process. The pronounced primary kinetic isotope effect observed when a deuterium atom is transferred from the C-l position, compared to the weak effect seen for the transfer from the C-2 position, indicates that the first transfer is the rate determining step. Quantum mechanical calculations showed that the neutral loss of benzene is a thermodynamically favorable process. Under the conditions used, only the spectra from ortho isomers showed peaks at mlz 77 for the phenyl anion and mlz 93 for the phenoxyl anion, in addition to that for the ortho-specific enolate anion. Under high collision energy, the ortho isomers also produce a peak at mlz 137 for an alkene loss. The spectra of meta and para compounds show a peak at mlz 92 for the distonic anion produced by the homolysis of the O-C bond. Moreover, a small peak at mlz 136 for a distonic anion originating from an alkyl radical loss allows the differentiation of para compounds from meta isomers. Copyright

Titanocene-catalyzed reductive epoxide opening: The quest for novel hydrogen atom donors

Novel hydrogen atom donors for the reductive titanocene-catalyzed epoxide opening are presented. While the potentially attractive cyclopentadienes gave only moderate yields of the desired alcohols, substituted, nontoxic, and commercially available 1,4-cyclohexadienes, e.g. γ-terpinene, in combination with more elaborate catalysts gave better or similar results than the much more expensive and carcinogenic 1,4-cyclohexadiene. In the practically important reactions of Sharpless epoxides and their derivatives excellent levels of regioselectivity for the epoxide opening could be obtained. The toxic and unpleasant to handle tert-butyl thiol could be replaced while increasing the yields of the desired products.
