Biocatalytic oxidative kinetic resolution of sec-alcohols: stereocontrol through substrate-modification
摘要:
Whole lyophilised cells of Rhodococcus ruber DSM 44541 were employed for the oxidative kinetic resolution of sec-alcohols using acetone as hydrogen acceptor. The enantioselectivity of this process could be controlled effectively by introducing C-C multiple bonds into substrates, which were inefficiently recognised, in particular short-chain (omega-1)-alcohols and (omega-2)-analogs. Thus, the enantioselectivities of rac-2-pentanol (E= 16.8) and rac-3-octanol (E= 13.3) were significantly improved by introducing a C=C bond adjacent to the alcohol moiety to give racemic (E)-pent-3-en-2-ol and 4-(E)-octen-3-ol, which were resolved with excellent selectivities (E >100 and 50, respectively). In addition, it was found that high stereodifferentiation between the E- and Z-configured double bonds occurred, as the corresponding (Z)-isomers were not converted. Similar selectivity-enhancing effects were observed with acetylenic analogs. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

Tailored ruthenium(IV) complexes can catalyze the isomerization of allylic alcohols into saturated carbonyl derivatives under physiologically relevant conditions, and even inside living mammalian cells. The reaction, which involves ruthenium-hydride intermediates, is bioorthogonal and biocompatible, and can be used for the “in cellulo” generation of fluorescent and bioactive probes.

groups with metal precursors or other post-synthetic manipulations are described. The MOFs provide a versatile family of recyclable and reusable single-site solid catalysts for catalyzing a variety of asymmetric organic transformations, including the regioselective boryiation and siiylation of benzyiic C—H bonds, the hydrogenation of aikenes, imines, carbonyls, nitroarenes, and heterocycles, hydroboration, hydrophosphination, and cyclization reactions. The solid catalysts can also be integrated into a flow reactor or a supercritical fluid reactor.
