Asymmetric reduction of 1-(benzoazol-2-ylsulfanyl)propan-2-ones using whole cells of Mortierella isabellina, Debaryomyces hansenii, Geotrichum candidum and Zygosaccharomyces rouxii
摘要:
Growing cells of four fungal strains were used in reduction of 1-(benzoazol-2-ylsulfanyl)propan-2-ones 3a-c to corresponding (R)-(+)-1-(benzoazol-2-ylsulfanyl)propan-2-ols (R)-(+)-4a-c. All of the investigated yeast strains displayed a very high activity toward prochiral ketones 3a-c converting them to the desired alcohols after relatively short reaction time (1-3.5 h). The biotransformation products were isolated with moderate to good yields (45-89%) and in highly enantioenriched forms (94-99% ee). Stereoselective bioreduction of 1-(1H-benzimidazol-2-ylsulfanyl)propan-2-one 3a by D. hansenii DSM 3428 growing cells provided the respective (R)-alcohol with >99% yield, in reasonable 65% isolated yield and in a highly stereoselective manner (98% ee) after 3 h of cultivation. In the same culture, bioreduction of 1-(1,3-benzoxazol-2-ylsulfanyl)propan-2-one 3b led to a 76% yield, 65% isolated yield and very high 94% ee of the formed (R)-alcohol. Similar 1.5 h incubation of 1-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-ylsulfanyl)propan-2-one 3c in G. candidum LOCK 105 culture resulted in the corresponding (R)-alcohol preparation in moderate 45% isolated yield with excellent enantiomeric purity (99% ee).

Lipase-catalyzed kinetic resolution of 1-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-ylsulfanyl)propan-2-ol with antifungal activity: a comparative study of transesterification versus hydrolysis
A study of chemoenzymatic synthesis of both enantiomers of 1-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-ylsulfanyl)propan-2-ol was carried out. Several commercially available lipase preparations were tested as biocatalysts in the kinetic resolution process of target compound by enantioselective transesterification and/or hydrolysis. CAL-B (Novozym 435) was found to be the optimal catalyst. The lipase-mediated hydrolysis approach appeared to be superior to the transesterification reaction. Absolute configuration of the obtained alcohol was postulated, applying modified Mosher's methodology. The inhibitory activity of the synthesized benzothiazole derivatives against pathogenic fungi was checked. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
1-(1,3-Benzothiazol-2-ylsulfanyl)propan-2-olate anion as a potential multifunctional ligand in aluminum complexes
1-(1,3-Benzothiazol-2-ylsulfanyl)propan-2-ol (C10H10NS2OH, LH) was used as a multifunctional ligand in reactions with aluminum trialkyls R3Al (R = Bu-i, Et, Bu-t). The reactions at 1:1 M ratio of reagents proceeded with formation of dimeric (R2AlL)(2) (R = Bu-i, Et) complexes with a central Al2O2 ring, whereas in a presence of an excess of R3Al the compounds [(R2Al)(R3Al)L](2) (R = Bu-i, Et) with the central Al2O2 ring and R3Al molecules coordinated to nitrogen atoms were obtained. (Bu3Al)-Bu-i reacted with the LH yielding monomeric complex (Bu2AlL)-Bu-t independently on the molar ratio of reagents. In the compound, Al coordinates to the nitrogen atom to form intramolecular sp(2)-N donor bonding. The compounds [((Bu2Al)-Bu-i)((Bu3Al)-Bu-i)L](2) (1), (Et2AlL)(2) (2) and (Bu2AlL)-Bu-t (3) were synthesized as pure compounds and characterized. Among four heteroatoms of the ligand, only the oxygen and nitrogen atoms can form bonds with aluminum atoms, whereas two sulfur atoms are non-coordinative. The compounds 1 and 2 are active as an initiator of the e-caprolactone polymerization. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Thermal Reactions of β-Hydroxysulfides Bearing Benzothiazole: Sulfenic Acid Trapping via a Spiro Intermediate
Benzothiazolyl 2-hydroxyethyl sulfoxide (1a) was found to afford bis[2-(2-oxobenzotiazolyl)-ethyl] disulfide (2a) in the presence of DBU at rt. 2a was formed by the condensation of corresponding sulfenic acid intermediate. Thermolyses of 1a in the presence of ethyl propiolate at 60-140 degrees C were carried out to succeed to trap sulfenic acid 6a as an intermediate. Trapping of 2-benzothiazolyloxyenthanesulfenic acid (6a) revealed that the thermal reaction proceeded via a five-membered spiro intermediate 5a.
