Eleven flavoproteins from the old yellow enzyme family were found to catalyze the disproportionation ("dismutation") of conjugated enones. Incomplete conversions, which were attributed to enzyme inhibition by the co-product phenol could be circumvented via in situ co-product removal by scavenging the phenol using the polymeric adsorbent MP-carbonate. The optimized system allowed to reduce an alkene activated by ester groups in a "coupled-substrate" approach via nicotinamide-free hydrogen transfer with >90% conversion and complete stereoselectivity.
从老黄酶家族中发现了 11 种黄素蛋白,可以催化共轭烯酮的歧化(“歧化”)反应。由于副产物苯酚抑制了酶的活性,导致不完全转化,通过使用聚合物吸附剂 MP-碳酸盐来清除苯酚以原位去除副产物,可以避免这种情况。通过无烟酰胺的氢转移,以“偶联底物”的方式在酯基活化的烯烃上进行反应,优化后的体系可以实现>90%的转化率和完全的立体选择性。
