Enzymatic resolution of (RS)-1-phenylalkyl β-d-glucosides to (R)-1-phenylalkyl β-primeverosides and (S)-1-phenylalkyl β-d-glucosides via plant xylosyltransferase
摘要:
The stereoselective xylosylation of (RS)-1-phenylalkyl beta-D-glucosides was investigated using plant xylosyltransferase isolated from cultured Catharanthus roseus cells. Enzymatic xylosylation of (RS)-1-phenylethyl beta-D-glucoside afforded (R)-1-phenylethyl beta-primeveroside and (S)-1-phenylethyl beta-D-glucoside. The (R)-selective xylosylation of (RS)-1-phenylbutyl beta-D-glucoside also occurred to give (R)-1-phenylbutyl p-primeveroside and recovered (S)-1-phenylbutyl beta-D-glucoside. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.
