The discovery, from nature, of a diverse set of microbial epoxide hydrolases is reported. The utility of a library of epoxide hydrolases in the synthesis of chiral 1,2-diols via desymmetrization of a wide range of meso-epoxides, including cyclic as well as acyclic alkyl- and aryl-substituted substrates, is demonstrated. The chiral (R,R)-diols were furnished with high ee's and yields. The discovery
据报道,从自然界中发现了多种微生物环氧化物水解酶。证明了环氧化物水解酶库在通过广泛的内消旋环氧化物(包括环状和非环状烷基和芳基取代底物)的去对称化合成手性 1,2-二醇中的效用。手性 (R,R)-二醇具有高 ee 和产率。还描述了第一个微生物环氧化物水解酶的发现,提供了互补 (S,S)-二醇。
