Enzymatic Resolution of α-acetoxysulfides: A new approach to the synthesis of homochiral S,O-Acetals
摘要:
A novel enzymatic resolution of alpha-acetoxysulfides using Pseudomonas fluorescens lipase is reported. Selectivity is highly dependent on the substrate and solvent, with enantiomeric excesses of >95% in some cases. We believe these are the first examples of enzymatic resolutions of an S,O-acetal.
Tunable Thioesters as “Reduction” Responsive Functionality for Traceless Reversible Protein PEGylation
摘要:
Disulfide has been the only widely used functionality to serve as a reduction responsive trigger in drug delivery. We introduce thioester as a novel thiol responsive chemistry for drug delivery, whose reactivity can be conveniently modulated by choosing the appropriate steric environment around the thioester. Compared with disulfides, thioesters are facile to synthesize and have an order of magnitude broader kinetic tunability. A novel traceless reversible protein PEGylation reagent is developed based on thioester chemistry.

fluorescens lipasecatalysed irreversible acetylation of a hemithioacetal using vinyl acetate proceeds via a novel dynamic kinetic resolution. Thus a thiol and an aldehyde are mixed together to form a racemic hemithioacetal, essentially a single enantiomer of which is acylated under the reaction conditions. Racemisation of the unrecognised hemithioacetal by a dissociation-recombination processcatalysed by

α,β-Diacetoxy sulphides are precursors of chiral oxathiolanes and have been resolved by Pseudomonasfluorescenslipasecatalysed hydrolysis. The resolution proceeds with complete regioselectivity for the primary acetate and excellent enantioselectivity in most cases.

In this communication, we describe an unprecedented highly enantioselective catalytic conjugateaddition of simple alkyl thiols to alpha,beta-unsaturated N-acylatedoxazolidin-2-ones catalyzed by acid-base bifunctional catalysis. This reaction provides a useful catalytic method for the synthesis of optically active chiral sulfur compounds that are otherwise difficult to prepare by asymmetric catalysis
