Highly enantioselective bioreduction of 2-fluorocinnamyl alcohols mediated by Saccharomyces cerevisiae
摘要:
Biocatalytic reduction of 2-fluorocinnamyl alcohols mediated by Saccharomyces cerevisiae was investigated in phosphate buffer solutions. Product analysis clearly showed that (S)-2-fluoro-3-arylpropanols were afforded in high yields with up to 92% ee Value. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
In contrast to well‐established asymmetric hydrogenation reactions, enantioselective protonation is an orthogonal approach for creating highly valuable methine chiral centers under redox‐neutral conditions. Reported here is the highly enantio‐ and diastereoselective hydrofluorination of enals by an asymmetric β‐protonation/α‐fluorination cascade catalyzed by N‐heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs). The two

Biocatalytic reduction of 2-fluoro-2-alken-1-ols mediated by Saccharomyces cerevisiae underwent smoothly and yielded (S)-2-fluorinated alkanols with high enantioselectivities. The conversion rate was markedly depending on the configuration of alkene moiety of the substrate, the chain length of alkyl group at beta position of C=C bond, as well as the reaction conditions.
