Stereoselective bioreduction of β-carboline imines through cell-free extracts from earthworms (Eisenia foetida)
摘要:
Although remarkable advances have been made over the last decade in organic synthesis, catalysis, and biotechnology, there is still a need to introduce and develop new processes for chemical production to achieve sustainable and cleaner approaches to support the increasing global pharmaceutical/chemical industry. There is a growing need to produce optically active compounds in high yields to maintain and support areas such as pharmaceutical and natural product synthesis. Thus, chemists today are looking for alternative reactions carried out under green conditions. In this context, we describe beta-carboline imine reductions employing cell-free extracts from red Californian earthworms (Eisenia foetida) in high yields and enantiomeric excesses. The enantiomeric excess values of the bioreduction showed no dependence on the imine 1a-g substituents to afford amines with an (R)-configuration. Based on these data, a model for the cell-free extract from the earthworm is proposed. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

beta-Carboline imine reductions mediated by Saccharomyces bayanus have been described achieving moderate to good enantiomeric excesses of the amine products. The enantiomeric excesses of the bioreduction showed a dependence on the imine substituents. Compounds presenting C-1-C-11 aliphatic substituent groups afforded amines with an (S)-configuration, whereas C-15 and higher aliphatic, and aromatic substituted B-carboline imines achieved inversion of the configuration in the final (R)-2 amine products. Based on this data, a model for the Saccharomyces reduction is proposed. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
