(S)-Selective Dynamic Kinetic Resolution of Secondary Alcohols by the Combination of Subtilisin and an Aminocyclopentadienylruthenium Complex as the Catalysts
摘要:
A new procedure for the dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of racemic alcohols into single enantiomers is described. This procedure employs surfactant-treated subtilisin as an (S)-selective resolving catalyst and an aminocyclopentadienylruthenium complex as a racemizing catalyst. The DKR is performed best in the presence of an acyl donor such as trifluoroethyl butyrate in THF at room temperature. Eight simple secondary alcohols have been efficiently resolved with high optical purities and good yields. The subtilisin-based DKR is complementary in stereoselectivity to its lipase-based counterpart. For an acyl-carrying alcohol, both subtilisin- and lipase-based DKRs have proceeded equally well to give a pair of enantiomeric products (>99.5% ee each) with opposite optical rotations in high yields (94-95%).
Enzyme catalysis in organic solvents is a powerful tool for stereo-selective synthesis but the enantioselectivity is still hard to pi edict To overcome this obstacle. we employed a nanoparticulate formulation of subtilisin Carlsberg (SC) and designed a series of 14 structurally related racemic alcohols They were employed in the model transesterification reaction with vinyl butyrate and the enantioselectivities were determined. In general. short alcohol side chains led to low enantioselectivties, while larger and bulky side chains caused better discrimination of the enantiomers by the enzyme With several bulky substrates high enantioselectivities with E>100 were obtained Computational modeling highlighted that key to high enantioselectivity is the discrimination of the R and S substrates by the sole hydrophobic binding pocket based on their size and bulkiness While bulky S enantiomer side chains could be accommodated within the binding pocket, bulky R enantiomer side chains could not However, when also the S enantiomer side chain becomes too large and does not fit into the binding pocket anymore. enantioselectivity accordingly drops (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved

A lipase from Serratia marcescens H30 was cloned and functionally expressed in E. coli in soluble form (more than 80%). The recombinant lipase activity reached 25,000 U/L after optimization. Different carriers were used to immobilize the recombinant S. marcescens lipase (SmL), and LH-EP was found to be the most ideal carrier. LH-EP immobilized SmL could catalyze enantioselective resolution of racemic alcohols. Using 4-phenyl-2-butanol as the model alcohol, the effects of temperature, organic solvent, water activity, acyl donor and substrate molar ratio on the LH-EP immobilized SmL catalyzed kinetic resolution were investigated. All of these factors influenced the resolution effect to some extent. At last, a high E value of more than 200 was achieved, with ee(s) > 99% and a conversion of 49.9%. Further studies showed that the LH-EP immobilized SmL could also catalyze the kinetic resolution of other structure similar racemic alcohols. These results indicate that the SmL is useful for biocatalytic production of chiral alcohols. This work is the first attempt of using SmL in this field, and it further broadens the application field of SmL. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
