identified, and optimization studies led to the development of an enzymatic protocol for the reduction of α,β-unsaturated acids under mild, aqueous conditions. The substrate scope includes aromatic- and aliphatic-substituted acrylic acids, as well as cyclic α,β-substituted acrylic acids, yielding chiral α-substituted acids with exquisite levels of enantioselectivity (>99% ee).
鉴定了具有广泛底物特异性的烯还原酶 (ERED 36),优化研究导致开发了一种酶促方案,用于在温和的水性条件下还原 α,β-不饱和酸。底物范围包括芳香族和脂肪族取代的丙烯酸,以及环状 α,β-取代的丙烯酸,产生具有极佳对映选择性 (>99% ee) 的手性 α-取代酸。
