The discovery, from nature, of a diverse set of microbial epoxide hydrolases is reported. The utility of a library of epoxide hydrolases in the synthesis of chiral 1,2-diols via desymmetrization of a wide range of meso-epoxides, including cyclic as well as acyclic alkyl- and aryl-substituted substrates, is demonstrated. The chiral (R,R)-diols were furnished with high ee's and yields. The discovery of the first microbial epoxide hydrolases providing access to complementary (S,S)-diols is also described.
报道了从自然界中发现的多种微生物环氧化物水解酶。展示了一个环氧化物水解酶文库在通过多种内消旋环氧化物(包括环状以及无环烷基和芳基取代的底物)的去对称化合成手性1,2 -二醇中的应用。手性(R,R)-二醇具有高对映体过量(ee)值和产率。还描述了首次发现的能够获得互补(S,S)-二醇的微生物环氧化物水解酶。
