Chemoenzymic Production of Lactams from Aliphatic α,ω-Dinitriles
摘要:
Five- and six-membered ring lactams have been prepared by first converting an aliphatic alpha,omega-dinitrile to an omega-cyanocarboxylic acid ammonium salt, using a microbial cell catalyst having an aliphatic nitrilase activity (Acidovorax: facilis 72W, ATCC 55746) or a combination of nitrile hydratase and amidase activities (Comamonas testosteroni 5-MGAM-4D, ATCC 55744). The omega-cyanocarboxylic acid ammonium salt was then directly converted to the corresponding lactam by hydrogenation in aqueous solution, without isolation of the intermediate omega-cyanocarboxylic acid or omega-aminocarboxylic acid. Only one of two possible lactam products was produced from alpha-alkyl-substituted alpha,omega-dinitriles, where the nitrilase of A. facilis 72W regioselectively hydrolyzed only the omega-cyano group to produce a single cyanocarboxylic acid ammonium salt in greater than 98% yield.
The present invention relates to a process for preparing at least one diacid compound, comprising a step of hydrolysis reaction of at least one imide compound, performed in the absence of catalyst.

The present invention relates to a process for hydrocyanating a hydrocarbon-based compound containing at least one ethylenic unsaturation by reaction in liquid medium with hydrogen cyanide in the presence of a catalyst comprising a metal element chosen from transition metals and an organophosphorus ligand, characterized in that the organophosphorus ligand is a monodentate organophosphorus compound. The present invention is in particular useful for the synthesis of adiponitrile from butadiene.

The present invention relates to a process for producing compounds comprising at least one nitrile function by hydrocyanation of a compound comprising at least one non-conjugated unsaturation.
The invention proposes a process for producing compounds comprising at least one nitrile function by hydrocyanation of an organic compound comprising at least one non-conjugated unsaturation, comprising from 2 to 20 carbon atoms, by reaction with hydrogen cyanide in the presence of a catalytic system comprising a complex of nickel having the oxidation state of zero with at least one organophosphorus ligand chosen from the group comprising organophosphites, organophosphonites, organophosphinites and organosphosphines and a cocatalyst of the Lewis acid type of formula
in which M1 and M2 represent elements chosen from the group comprising zinc, boron, aluminium, cadmium, gallium, indium and tin.
