Regio - and enantioselective bioreduction of ethyl 2,4-dioxoalkanoates and γ-Keto-α-enamino esters with fermenting baker's yeast
摘要:
2,4-Dioxoalkanoates 1a-d and the parent compounds gamma-keto-alpha-enamino esters 2a-d are regioselectively reduced by baker's yeast to (R)-alpha-hydroxy-gamma-ketoesters 4a-d in moderate to good chemical yield and appreciable enantioselectivity. Pig liver esterase enantioselective hydrolysis of the acetyl derivatives 3a-d, easily obtained by treatment of racemic alpha-hydroxy-gamma-keto esters 4a-d, produced the optically active (S) 4a-d in good chemical (60-92%) and optical (53-92%) yield.

The direct aldol reactions of various ketones with glyoxylicacid and glyoxylates afforded the α-hydroxy acid and α-hydroxy esters in good yields and high regioselectivities.
prepared using Schiff's bases derived from aromatic aldehydes and amines or α-aminoesters. These complexes are versatile catalyst for the reaction between aliphatic aldehydes and various alkenes. The outcome of the reaction is controlled by the electronic nature of the alkene as the electron deficient alkenes undergo oxidative addition of aldehydes followed by dioxygen incorporation to yield 2-hydr

The reaction of aldehydes with acetic anhydride in the presence of catalytic cobalt(II) chloride under an oxygen atmosphere at ambient temperature is dependent upon the reaction medium. Aliphatic aldehydes react in acetonitrile to give 1,2-diones whereas the aromatic aldehydes are acylated to yield the corresponding acylals. On the other hand, carboxylic acids are obtained from aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes by conducting the reaction in dichloroethane or benzene. Cobalt(II) chloride in acetonitrile catalyzes the conversion of aliphatic aldehydes to the corresponding anhydrides in the absence of acetic anhydride whereas aromatic aldehydes remain largely unaffected under these conditions. A preliminary mechanistic study in three different solvents (i.e. acetonitrile, dichloroethane, and DMF) has revealed that in acetonitrile and in the presence of acetic anhydride, aliphatic aldehydes behave differently than aromatic aldehydes. Some trapping experiments using methyl acrylate and stilbene have been conducted to demonstrate the occurrence of an acyl cobalt and peroxyacyl cobalt intermediate during these reactions.
