| Research Abstract |
1. Synthesis of Optically Active Compounds
We designed and synthesized useful chiral synthetic intermediates having an azirine skeleton, a pentafluorophenyl group, a tetraphenylporphyrin moiety and so on. Optically active compounds of these molecules were prepared by lipase- and subtilisin-catalyzed kinetic resolutions or by asymmetric reductions using carbonyl reductases with high enantioselectivities. We found that the diastereofacial selectivity in the nucleophilic addition to azirine derivatives can be controlled by coordination and steric hindrance. We also synthesized new chiral 1, 2-diol and 1, 2 amino alcohol from 2-acyloxy-2-(pentafluorophenyl)acetonitrile.
2. Lipase-catalyzed reactions at very low temperature
(]SY.++.〔ィエD1) and △△SィイD1(〕SY.++.〔ィエD1) values were calculated according to a theoretical equation.
3. Enantioselective reduction using bakers' yeast and purified reductase
Asymmetric reductions using bakers' yeast and carbonyl reductases afforded various optically active alcohols. In general, the reductases purified from bakers' yeast showed higher enantioselectivity than the whole cell of bakers' yeast.
