The enzymatic ring‐opening polymerization of a 6‐membered cyclic depsipeptide, 3(S)‐isopropylmorpholine‐2,5‐dione in the bulk, was investigated by using lipases as catalysts at 100 and 130°C. Unchanged monomer was recovered in the absence of the enzyme or using an inactivated enzyme, indicating that the present polymerization proceeds through enzymatic catalysis. Poly(3‐isopropylmorpholine‐2,5‐dione) has a carboxylic acid group at one end and a hydroxy group at the other end. 相似文献
Treatment of adenosine with PSCl3 in trimethyl phosphate gave, after ion‐exchange chromatography, adenosine‐5′‐O‐monophosphate (AMP; 28%) and adenosine‐5′‐O‐monothiophosphate (AMPS; 48%). AMPS was studied as a thiophosphate residue donor in an enzymatic transphosphorylation with nucleoside phosphotransferase (NPase) of the whole cells of Erwinia herbicola. As exemplified by a number of natural and sugar‐ and base‐modified nucleosides, it was demonstrated that NPase of the whole cells of Erwinia herbicola catalyzes the transfer of both thiophosphate and phosphate residues with a similar efficiency. An incubation of AMPS in a phosphorylating extract of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (K‐phosphate buffer (0.3 M , pH 7.0); 3% glucose; 15 mM MgCl2; 28°, 8 h), followed by ion‐exchange column chromatography afforded AMP (8%), AMPS (recovered, 23%), ATP (11%), and (SP)‐adenosine‐5′‐O‐(1‐thiotriphosphate) ((SP)‐ATPαS); (total yield 37%; 48% based on the consumed AMPS). For comparison of physicochemical properties, adenosine was chemically transformed into ATPαS as a mixture of the (SP) (53%) and (RP) (44%) diastereoisomers. 相似文献
9‐(3‐Deoxy‐β‐D ‐erythro‐pentofuranosyl)‐2,6‐diaminopurine ( 6 ) was synthesized by an enzymatic transglycosylation of 2,6‐diaminopurine ( 2 ) with 3′‐deoxycytidine ( 1 ) as a donor of 3‐deoxy‐D ‐erythro‐pentofuranose moiety. This transformation comprises i) deamination of 1 to 3′‐deoxyuridine ( 3 ) under the action of whole cell (E. coli BM‐11) cytidine deaminase (CDase), ii) the phosphorolytic cleavage of 3 by uridine phosphorylase (UPase) giving rise to the formation of uracil ( 4 ) and 3‐deoxy‐α‐D ‐erythro‐pentofuranose‐1‐O‐phosphate ( 5 ), and iii) coupling of the latter with 2 catalyzed by whole cell (E. coli BMT‐4D/1A) purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNPase). Deamination of 6 by adenosine deaminase (ADase) gave 3′‐deoxyguanosine ( 7 ). Treatment of 6 with NaNO2 afforded 9‐(3‐deoxy‐β‐D ‐erythro‐pentofuranosyl)‐2‐amino‐6‐oxopurine (3′‐deoxyisoguanosine; 8 ). Schiemann reaction of 6 (HF/HBF4+NaNO2) gave 9‐(3‐deoxy‐β‐D ‐erythro‐pentofuranosyl)‐2‐fluoroadenine ( 9 ). 相似文献
This paper reports the enzymatic polymerization of the inclusion complex 2,4‐dihydroxyphenyl‐4′‐hydroxybenzylketone/2,6‐dimethyl‐β‐cyclodextrin by horseradish peroxidase (HRP) in aqueous media. The structure of the complex was determined by means of NOESY‐NMR and crystallographic analysis (indicating an orthorhombic structure). The enzymatic polymerization of the uncomplexed 2,4‐dihydroxyphenyl‐4′‐hydroxybenzylketone yields oligomers with molecular weights up to in organic‐aqueous media, but because of its poor solubility in aqueous systems, no polymerization is observed if water is used as solvent. An increase of the availability of the ketone in solution is achieved by complexing it with random‐methylated β‐cyclodextrin in water. We found that the use of methylated β‐cyclodextrin in equimolar concentration to the monomer increases the polymerization yield and the average molecular weight. The polymers formed were analyzed by GPC and ATR‐FTIR techniques.

A gene of α‐L ‐arabinofuranosidase (Abf) from Trichoderma koningii G‐39 was successfully expressed in Pichia pastoris. The recombinant enzyme was purified to > 90% homogeneity by a cation‐exchanged chromatography. The purified enzyme exhibits both α‐L ‐arabinofuranosidase and β‐D ‐xylosidase (Xyl) activities with p‐nitrophenyl‐α‐L ‐arabionfuranoside (pNPAF) and 2,4‐dinitrophenyl‐β‐D ‐xylopyanoside (2,4‐DNPX) as substrate, respectively. The stability and the catalytic feature of the bifunctional enzyme were characterized. The enzyme was stable for at least 2 h at pH values between 2 and 8.3 at room temperature when assayed for Abf and Xyl activities. Enzyme activity decreased dramatically when the pH exceeded 9.5 or dropped below 1.5. The enzyme lost 35% of Abf activity after incubation at 55 °C for 2 h, but retained 95% of Xyl activity, with 2,4‐DNXP as substrate, under the same conditions. Further investigation of the active site topology of both enzymatic functions was performed with the inhibition study of enzyme activities. The results revealed that methyl‐α‐L ‐arabinofuranoside inhibition is noncompetitive towards 2,4‐DNPX as substrate but competitive towards pNPAF. Based on the thermal stability and the inhibition studies, we suggest that the enzymatic reactions of Abf and Xyl are performed at distinct catalytic sites. The recombinant enzyme possesses both the retaining transarabinofuranosyl and transxylopyranosyl activities, indicating both enzymatic reactions proceed through a two‐step, double displacement mechanism. 相似文献
Enantiomerically pure methyl esters of (+)‐(2R,3S)‐ and (−)‐(2S,3R)‐5‐oxo‐2‐pentylpyrrolidine‐3‐carboxylic acid with 99% and 98% ee were obtained by enzymatic resolution of the corresponding racemic mixture using α‐chymotrypsin and pig‐liver acetone powder, respectively. Their absolute configurations were established by chemical methods, i.e., conversion of the trans‐γ‐lactam moiety to the corresponding γ‐lactone of known configuration. The favorable interactions between the trans‐γ‐lactam and α‐chymotrypsin were rationalized by molecular‐mechanics calculations, which suggest a different situation for the cis‐diastereoisomer. 相似文献
An optically active α‐ethylated α,α‐disubstituted amino acid, (S)‐butylethylglycine (=(2S)‐2‐amino‐2‐ethylhexanoic acid; (S)‐Beg; (S)‐ 2 ), was prepared starting from butyl ethyl ketone ( 1 ) by the Strecker method and enzymatic kinetic resolution of the racemic amino acid. Homooligopeptides containing (S)‐Beg (up to hexapeptide) were synthesized by conventional solution methods. An ethyl ester was used for the protection at the C‐terminus, and a trifluoroacetyl group was used for the N‐terminus of the peptides. The structures of tri‐ and tetrapeptides 5 and 6 in the solid state were solved by X‐ray crystallographic analysis, and were shown to have a bent planar C5‐conformation (tripeptide) and a fully planar C5‐conformation (tetrapeptide) (see Figs. 1 and 2, resp.). The IR and 1H‐NMR spectra of hexapeptide 8 revealed that the dominant conformation in CDCl3 solution was also a fully planar C5‐conformation. These results show for the first time that the preferred conformation of homopeptides containing a chiral α‐ethylated α,α‐disubstituted amino acid is a planar C5‐conformation. 相似文献
A structural comparison of three different crystalline forms of poly(β‐propiolactone) (PPL) was carried out by wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction, Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry. The α‐form in a hot‐drawn and annealed film represents a 21 helix conformation. The β‐form in a cold‐drawn and annealed film represents a planar zigzag conformation. The γ‐form in an oriented sedimented mat of solution‐grown chain‐folded lamellar crystals also implies a planar zigzag conformation. The solution‐cast film depicts similar outlines with the γ‐form in lamellar crystals in all the experimental measurements, suggesting that the molecular chain in the solution‐cast film has a planar zigzag conformation. While elongation at break decreased, tensile strength and Young's modulus increased with an increase in the crystallinity, independent of the crystalline forms. The influence of the enzymatic degradation of these crystal structures has been investigated by using an extracellular PHB depolymerase purified from Ralstonia pickettii T1. The rate of degradation was in the order of β‐form > α‐form > solution‐cast (γ‐form) film, and the different surface morphologies after partial enzymatic degradation were observed in scanning electron micrographs. It is suggested that the crystal structure is one of the important factors for determining the rate of degradation together with crystallinity.

We have developed an efficient total synthesis of (?)‐morphine in 5 % overall yield with the longest linear sequence consisting of 17 steps from 2‐cyclohexen‐1‐one. The cyclohexenol unit was prepared by means of an enzymatic resolution and a Suzuki–Miyaura coupling as key steps. Construction of the morphinan core features an intramolecular aldol reaction and an intramolecular 1,6‐addition. Furthermore, mild deprotection conditions to remove the 2,4‐dinitrobenzenesulfonyl (DNs) group enabled the facile construction of the morphinan skeleton. We have also established an efficient synthetic route to a cyclohexenol unit containing an N‐methyl‐DNs‐amide moiety. 相似文献
The phosphodiester linkage of 3′‐O‐levulinoylthymidine 5′‐methylphosphate ( 5 ) has been protected with 2‐[(acetyloxy)methyl]‐4‐(acetylsulfanyl)‐2‐(ethoxycarbonyl)‐3‐oxobutyl group (to give 1 ) to study the potential of this group as an esterase‐ and thermolabile protecting group. The group turned out to be unexpectedly thermolabile, being removed as ethyl 3‐(acetyloxy)‐4‐(acetylsulfanyl)‐2‐methylidenebut‐3‐enoate ( 10 ) without accumulation of any intermediates. The half‐life of this reaction at pH 7.5 and 37° is 14 min. Hog liver esterase (HLE), in turn, removes the protecting group as ethyl 4‐(acetylsulfanyl)‐2‐methylidene‐3‐oxobutanoate ( 12 ). On using 2.6 units of HLE in 1 ml, the rate of the enzymatic deprotection was still only one third of that of the nonenzymatic reaction. The mechanisms of both reactions have been studied and discussed. The crucial step seems to be removal of the O‐bound Ac group, either by esterase or by migration to the neighboring 3‐oxo group (nonenzymatic removal). This triggers the removal by retro‐aldol condensation/elimination mechanism. No alkylation of glutathione (GSH) upon the deprotection of 1 could be detected. 相似文献
An efficient one‐pot method for the enzyme‐ and ruthenium‐catalyzed enantioselective transformation of α‐allenic alcohols into 2,3‐dihydrofurans has been developed. The method involves an enzymatic kinetic resolution and a subsequent ruthenium‐catalyzed cycloisomerization, which provides 2,3‐dihydrofurans with excellent enantioselectivity (up to >99 % ee). A ruthenium carbene species was proposed as a key intermediate in the cycloisomerization. 相似文献
Annulenoid Tetrathiafulvalenes: 5,16‐Bis(1,3‐benzodithiol‐2‐ylidene)‐5,16‐dihydrotetraepoxy‐ and 5,16‐Bis(1,3‐benzodithiol‐2‐ylidene)‐5,16‐dihydrotetraepithio[22]annulenes(2.1.2.1) The title compounds are among the first tetrathiafulvalenes with annulene spacers, here with tetraepoxy‐[22]annulene(2.1.2.1) (see 3a ), tetraepithio[22]annulene(2.1.2.1) (see 3b ), and diepithiodiepoxy[22]annulene(2.1.2.1) (see 23 ) units. The annulenoid tetrathiafulvalenes 3a and 3b are prepared by cyclizing McMurry coupling of the 5,5′‐(1,3‐benzodithiol‐2‐ylidenemethylene)bis[furan‐ or thiophene‐2‐carbaldehydes] ( 8a or 8b , resp.) or by Wittig reaction of (1,3‐benzodithiol‐2‐yl)tributylphosphonium tetrafluoroborate ( 13b ) with tetraepoxy[22]annulene(2.1.2.1)‐1,12‐dione 20 (formation of 3a ) or diepithiodiepoxy[22]annulene(2.1.2.1)‐1,12‐dione 22 (formation of 23 ). The annulenoide tetrathiafulvalene 3a is obtained as a mixture of the isomers (E,E)‐ and (Z,Z)‐ 3a . At 130°, (Z,Z)‐ 3a rearranges quantitatively into the (E,E)‐isomer. Isomer (E,E)‐ 3a is a dynamic molecule, where the (E)‐ethene‐1,2‐diyl bridges rotate around the adjacent σ‐bonds. The tetraepithioannulene derivative 3b as well as 23 only exist in the (Z,Z)‐configuration. The oxidation of (E,E/Z,Z)‐ 3a with Br2 yields the annulene‐bridged tetrathiafulvalene dication (E,E)‐ 3a Ox, while with 4,5‐dichloro‐3,6‐dioxocyclohexa‐1,4‐diene‐1,2‐dicarbonitrile (DDQ) obviously only the radical cation 3a Sem is formed, which belongs to the class of cyanine‐like violenes. The annulenoide tetrathiafulvalenes 3b and 23 , which exist only in the (Z,Z)‐configuration, obviously for steric reasons, cannot be oxidized by DDQ. Electrochemical studies are in agreement with these results. 相似文献

Their structures were confirmed by IR, 1H NMR, mass spectroscopy, and elemental analyses. The results of preliminary bioassays showed the title compounds 5 and 6 exhibited moderate to good fungicidal activities. For example, compound 6c possessed 86.4% inhibition against Fusarium oxysporum, and compound 6b exhibited 86.4 and 100% inhibition against Fusarium oxysporum and Cercospora arachidicola Hori at the concentration of 50 mg/L, respectively. 相似文献
The enzymatic transformation of poly(ϵ‐caprolactone) (PCL) into repolymerizable oligomers in supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) using an enzyme was carried out in order to establish a sustainable chemical recycling system for PCL, which is a typical biodegradable synthetic plastic. The enzymatic conversion of PCL beads having an M̄n of 110 000 using Candida antarctica lipase (lipase CA) in scCO2 containing small amounts of water quantitatively afforded CL oligomers at 40°C. The CL oligomers were readily repolymerized using the same enzyme to produce high‐molecular weight PCL. 相似文献
