Deracemisation of aryl substituted α-hydroxy esters using Candida parapsilosis ATCC 7330: effect of substrate structure and mechanism
摘要:
Candida parapsilosis ATCC 7330 was found to be an efficient biocatalyst for the deracemisation of aryl alpha-hydroxy esters (65-85% yield and 90-99% ee). A variety of aryl and aryl substituted alpha-hydroxy esters were synthesized to reflect steric and electronic effects on biocatalytic deracemisation. The mechanism of this biocatalytic deracemisation was found to be stereoinversion. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

α-ketoglutarate-dependent aryloxyalkanoate dioxygenases (AADs) are repurposed for applications in biocatalytic oxyfunctionalization. Activity profiling of natural AADs enabled the synthesis of four types of α-and β-hydroxy acids with broad scope, high efficiency, and good selectivity.
A process for preparing a 1,2-ethanediol derivative in a high yield by reducing an α-hydroxy carboxylic acid ester derivative in a protic solvent or a hydrous aprotic polar solvent in the presence of a sodium boron hydride compound. A process for preparing a 1,2-ethanediol derivative in a high yield by esterifying an α-hydroxy carboxylic acid derivative to synthesize an α-hydroxy carboxylic acid ester derivative, and reducing this ester derivative in a protic solvent or a hydrous aprotic polar solvent in the presence of a sodium borohydride compound in the same reaction vessel.
