The design of a radical relay chaperone to promote selective C-H functionalizations is described. A saccharin-based imine was found to be uniquely suited to effect C-H amination of alcohols via an in situ generated hemiaminal. This radical chaperone facilitates the mild generation of an N-centered radical while also directing its regioselective H atom transfer (HAT) to the β carbon of an alcohol. Upon β C-H halogenation, aminocyclization, and reductive cleavage, an NH2 is formally added vicinal to an alcohol. The development, synthetic utility, and chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivity of this imine chaperone-mediated C-H amination is presented herein.

The catalytic coupling of alcohol and ammonia is an environmentally friendly process. Cobalt-based catalysts, modified by supports (including CeO2, Fe3O4, Nb2O5, La3O4 and Al2O3), and prepared by the liquid-phase reduction, were used for the amination of 1,2-propanediol. The screened nano-Co/La3O4 catalyst exhibited an excellent catalytic performance of 68% conversion and 89% selectivity toward 2-amino-1-propanol under optimal conditions. The characterizations of the catalyst was performed by XRD, XPS, BET, TEM, TG, and CO2-TPD, revealing a relatively large specific surface area, strongly alkaline sites and a Co-La-O transition phase, which were responsible for the selective catalysis of 1,2-propanediol. The efficient construction of cobalt-based catalysts on the basis of the active species is key to improving the efficiency of the reaction process.
Rapid and Quantitative Profiling of Substrate Specificity of ω-Transaminases for Ketones

ω-Transaminases (ω-TAs) have gained growing attention owing to their capability for asymmetric synthesis of chiral amines from ketones. Reliable high-throughput activity assay of ω-TAs is essential in carrying out extensive substrate profiling and establishing a robust screening platform. Here we report spectrophotometric and colorimetric methods enabling rapid quantitation of ω-TA activities toward ketones in a 96-well microplate format. The assay methods employ benzylamine, a reactive amino donor for ω-TAs, as a cosubstrate and exploit aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) as a reporter enzyme, leading to formation of benzaldehyde detectable by ALDH owing to concomitant NADH generation. Spectrophotometric substrate profiling of two wild-type ω-TAs of opposite stereoselectivity was carried out at 340 nm with 22 ketones, revealing subtle differences in substrate specificities that were consistent with docking simulation results obtained with cognate amines. Colorimetric readout for naked eye detection of the ω-TA activity was also demonstrated by supplementing the assay mixture with color-developing reagents whose color reaction could be quantified at 580 nm. The colorimetric assay was applied to substrate profiling of an engineered ω-TA for 24 ketones, leading to rapid identification of reactive ketones. The ALDH-based assay is expected to be promising for high-throughput screening of enzyme collections and mutant libraries to fish out the best ω-TA candidate as well as to tailor enzyme properties for efficient amination of a target ketone.

Transformation of biomass into valuable nitrogen-containing compounds is highly desired, yet limited success has been achieved. Here we report an efficient catalyst system, partially reduced Ru/ZrO2, which could catalyze the reductive amination of a variety of biomass-derived aldehydes/ketones in aqueous ammonia. With this approach, a spectrum of renewable primary amines was produced in good to excellent yields. Moreover, we have demonstrated a two-step approach for production of ethanolamine, a large-market nitrogen-containing chemical, from lignocellulose in an overall yield of 10 %. Extensive characterizations showed that Ru/ZrO2-containing multivalence Ru association species worked as a bifunctional catalyst, with RuO2 as acidic promoter to facilitate the activation of carbonyl groups and Ru as active sites for the subsequent imine hydrogenation.

Transaminase enzymes have significant potential for the sustainable synthesis of amines using mild aqueous reaction conditions. Here a metagenomics mining strategy has been used for new transaminase enzyme discovery. Starting from oral cavity microbiome samples, DNA sequencing and bioinformatics analyses were performed. Subsequent in silico mining of a library of contiguous reads built from the sequencing data identified 11 putative Class III transaminases which were cloned and overexpressed. Several screening protocols were used and three enzymes selected of interest due to activities towards substrates covering a wide structural diversity. Transamination of functionalized cinnamaldehydes was then investigated for the production of valuable amine building blocks.
