The synthesis of (R)-γ-phenyl-γ-(trifluoromethyl)-butyrolactone and (2R,3S)-1,1,1-trifluoro-2-methoxy-2-phenyl-3,4-epoxybutane in homochiral forms.
摘要:
(R)-gamma-Phenyl-gamma-(trifluoromethyl)-butyrolactone (1) and (2R,3S)-1,1,1-trifluoro-2-methoxy-2-phenyl-3,4-epoxybutane (2) have been prepared in high optical purity from the tertiary (S)-(3)-acetate which was resolved using the lipase from Candida cylindracea.
A gene coding for an esterase (EstEH112) was isolated from metagenome originated from Korean intertidal flat sediment. The putative esterase gene encoded a 340 amino acids protein with characteristic residues of lipolytic enzymes such as a conserved pentapeptide (GXSXG), the typical catalytic S-D-H triad, and a GGG(A)X-motif in the oxyanion hole near the active site similar to the hormone sensitive lipase (HSL) family. p-Nitrophenyl butyrate was the best substrate for the enzyme among the other p-nitrophenyl esters investigated. The apparent optimal temperature and pH for EstEH112 was 35 C and at pH 8.0, respectively. EstEH112 efficiently catalyzed the hydrolysis of various large tertiary alcohol esters. These characteristics of EstEH112 make it a potential candidate for application in biocatalysis. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Catalytic enantioselective alkenylation and phenylation of trifluoromethyl ketones
Catalytic enantioselective alkenylation and phenylation of trifluoromethyl ketones are described. High enantioselectivity (up to 84% ee) was produced in an alkenylation of aryl trifluoromethyl ketones using a CuF–DTBM-SEGPHOS complex as the catalyst (5–10 mol %) and alkenylsilanes as the nucleophile. This is the first example of catalytic enantioselective alkenylation of trifluoromethyl ketones. The
