Optical Resolution of 5-Alkyl-δ-Valerolactones and Synthesis of Optically Active 5-Fluoroalkanols
摘要:
Optical resolutions of 5-alkyl-delta-valerolactones were carried out by derivatization to the diastereomeric amides, in which (R)-(+)1-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine or (S)-(-)-1-phenylethylamine were used as resolving agents. Optically active 5-fluoroalkanols, useful intermediates for fluorinated ferroelectric liquid crystals, were derived from the resolved lactones in four steps without racemization.
Enzyme assisted synthesis of enantiomerically pure δ-lactones
摘要:
Both enantiomeric series of a wide variety of optically pure 6-alkylated delta-lactones - saturated as well as unsaturated - were prepared via an enzyme mediated route. The key reaction step is the nucleophilic ring opening of enantiomerically pure alkyl-oxiranes, accessible via the corresponding beta-hydroxythioethers which can be obtained enantiomerically pure via enzyme catalyzed kinetic resolutions.

A carbonyl reductase variant, SmCRM5, from Serratia marcescens was obtained through structure-guided directed evolution. The variant showed improved specific activity (U mg−1) towards most of the 16 tested substrates and gave high stereoselectivities of up to 99% in the asymmetric synthesis of 13 γ-/δ-lactones. In particular, SmCRM5 showed a 13.8-fold higher specific activity towards the model substrate
来自粘质沙雷氏菌的羰基还原酶变体Sm CR M5是通过结构引导的定向进化获得的。该变体对 16 种测试底物中的大多数表现出改善的比活性 (U mg -1 ),并在 13 种 γ-/δ-内酯的不对称合成中提供高达 99% 的高立体选择性。特别是,SmCR M5对模型底物(即5-氧代癸酸)的比活性高出 13.8 倍,并在 99% ee 中产生 ( R )-δ-癸内酯,时空产率 (STY) 为 301 g L -1 d -1. 六种δ-内酯的高收率和高对映体纯度的制备表明这些高附加值化学品的生物催化合成是可行的,为贵金属催化提供了一种具有成本效益的绿色替代品。

Enoyl-ACP reductase (FabI) was identified as a non-OYE 'ene'-reductase for asymmetric reduction of the C=C double bond of alpha, beta-unsaturated ketones. Reduction of several 2-alkylidenecyclopentanones with A-FabI and E-FabI gave (R)-2-alkylcyclopentanones in 95-90% and 70-81% ee, respectively. The product ee was improved to 99-98% in high yield by subsequent one-pot biooxidation.
Use of 1,3-Dioxin-4-ones and Related Compounds in Synthesis. XLIV. Asymmetric Aldol Reaction of 4-Trimethylsiloxy-6-methylene-1,3-dioxines: Use of Tartaric Acid-Derived (Acyloxy)borane Complex as the Catalyst.
A novel enantioselective synthesis of 1, 3-dioxin-4-ones having a 2-hydroxylated alkyl group at the 6-position has been accomplished by chiral tartaric acid-derived acylborane-mediated aldol condensation of the silyl enol ether derived from 6-methyl-derivatives of 1, 3-dioxin-4-one with achiral aldehydes.
