A novel enzymatic tandem process: utilization of biocatalytic promiscuity for high stereoselective synthesis of 5-hydroxyimino-4,5-dihydrofurans
摘要:
A lipase-catalyzed protocol for the synthesis of 5-hydroxyimino-4,5-dihydrofurans via tandem coupling between beta-nitrostyrenes and 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds was developed in a 'one-pot' strategy. A series of beta-nitrostyrenes were employed to expand the scope of this new biocatalytic promiscuity with high stereoselectivity (Z/E up to 99:1) and moderate to good yields. The reaction activity of 1,3-cyclo-hexanedione was found to be better than linear 2,4-pentanedione, while ethyl acetoacetate and diethylmalonate were not suitable for this reaction under the same conditions. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that the reaction was stereoselective and Z-stereomer was found to be the major product. A reaction mechanism was supposed to elucidate the biocatalytic process. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A convenient one-pot two-step procedure for the synthesis of hydroxyiminodihydrobenzofurans assisted by microwave irradiation in presence of silica gel is described herein. Cyclic 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds reacted smoothly with various nitroolefins to furnish hydroxyiminodihydrobenzofuran derivatives as the mixture of E and Z isomers. Clean reaction conditions, no work-up procedure, easy isolation and
