The invention relates to a coupled enzymatic process for producing tryptamine derivatives from indole compounds. In the first enzyme-catalyzed reaction, indole derivatives are converted to tryptophan derivative intermediates, then the tryptophan intermediates are decarboxylated in a second enzymatic reaction in the same reaction system. In this way, tryptamine derivative products are formed from indole derivatives in a single process. The invention is also directed to novel tryptophan and tryptamine derivatives, which can be prepared by the inventive method.
本发明涉及一种从
吲哚化合物中生产
色胺衍
生物的耦合酶促反应过程。在第一次酶催化反应中,
吲哚衍
生物被转化为色
