Abstract
Chiral 1,4-diols serve as crucial intermediates in the pharmaceutical industry, yet their asymmetric synthesis remains challenging. Through size-complementary engineering of alcohol dehydrogenase from Saccharomyces kudriavzevii, bulky diaryl and aliphatic chiral 1,4-diols were synthesized with high stereoselectivity. Mutant M5 showed a 181-fold enhancement in catalytic efficiency toward 1,4-diphenyl-1,4-butanedione, whereas mutant N2 delivered a space–time yield of 1065 g L–1 d–1 for (2S,5S)-hexanediol. This work provides a valuable platform for accessing bulky diaryl and aliphatic diols.
手性1,4-二醇是制药工业中重要的中间体，但其不对称合成仍然具有挑战性。通过醇脱氢酶的大小互补工程，合成了具有高立体选择性的大体积二芳基和脂肪族手性1,4-二醇。突变体M5对1,4-二苯基-1,4-丁二酮的催化效率提高了181倍，而突变体N2对(2S,5S)-己二醇的时空产率为1065 g L-1 d-1。这项工作为获取大体积二芳基和脂肪族二醇提供了一个有价值的平台。
期刊介绍：
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
