Lipozyme 435-Mediated Synthesis of Xylose Oleate in Methyl Ethyl Ketone.

ABSTRACT: In this paper, we have performed the Lipozyme 435-catalyzed synthesis of xylose oleate in methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) from xylose and oleic acid. The effects of substrates' molar ratios, reaction temperature, reaction time on esterification rates, and Lipozyme 435 reuse were studied. Results showed that an excess of oleic acid (xylose: oleic acid molar ratio of 1:5) significantly favored the reaction, yielding 98% of xylose conversion and 31% oleic acid conversion after 24 h-reaction (mainly to xylose mono- and dioleate, as confirmed by mass spectrometry). The highest Lipozyme 435 activities occurred between 55 and 70 °C. The predicted Ping Pong Bi Bi kinetic model fitted very well to the experimental data and there was no evidence of inhibitions in the range assessed. The reaction product was purified and presented an emulsion capacity close to that of a commercial sugar ester detergent. Finally, the repeated use of Lipozyme 435 showed a reduction in the reaction yields (by 48 and 19% in the xylose and oleic acid conversions, respectively), after ten 12 h-cycles.

Engineering of bacterial methyl ketone synthesis for biofuels.

Project description:We have engineered Escherichia coli to overproduce saturated and monounsaturated aliphatic methyl ketones in the C?? to C?? (diesel) range; this group of methyl ketones includes 2-undecanone and 2-tridecanone, which are of importance to the flavor and fragrance industry and also have favorable cetane numbers (as we report here). We describe specific improvements that resulted in a 700-fold enhancement in methyl ketone titer relative to that of a fatty acid-overproducing E. coli strain, including the following: (i) overproduction of ?-ketoacyl coenzyme A (CoA) thioesters achieved by modification of the ?-oxidation pathway (specifically, overexpression of a heterologous acyl-CoA oxidase and native FadB and chromosomal deletion of fadA) and (ii) overexpression of a native thioesterase (FadM). FadM was previously associated with oleic acid degradation, not methyl ketone synthesis, but outperformed a recently identified methyl ketone synthase (Solanum habrochaites MKS2 [ShMKS2], a thioesterase from wild tomato) in ?-ketoacyl-CoA-overproducing strains tested. Whole-genome transcriptional (microarray) studies led to the discovery that FadM is a valuable catalyst for enhancing methyl ketone production. The use of a two-phase system with decane enhanced methyl ketone production by 4- to 7-fold in addition to increases from genetic modifications.

Nickel-Mediated Photoreductive Cross Coupling of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives for Ketone Synthesis.

Project description:A simple visible light photochemical, nickel-catalyzed synthesis of ketones from carboxylic acid-derived precursors is presented. Hantzsch ester (HE) functions as a cheap, green and strong photoreductant to facilitate radical generation and also engages in the Ni-catalytic cycle to restore the reactive species. With this dual role, HE allows for the coupling of a large variety of radicals (1°,2°, benzylic, α-oxy & α-amino) with aroyl and alkanoyl moieties, a new feature in reactions of this type. With both precursors deriving from abundant carboxylic acids, this protocol is a welcome addition to the organic chemistry toolbox. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions without the need for toxic metal reagents or bases and shows a wide scope, including pharmaceuticals and complex molecular architectures.

2-Ethyl 4-methyl 5-ethyl-3-methyl-1H-pyrrole-2,4-dicarboxyl-ate.

Project description:The title pyrrole derivative compound, C(12)H(17)NO(4), was synthesized from methyl 3-oxopenta-noate by a Knorr-type reaction and contains a pyrrole ring to which two diagonal alk-oxy-carbonyl groups and two diagonal alkyl substituents are attached. The methyl-carbonyl and ethyl-carbonyl substituents are approximately co-planar with the pyrrole ring, making dihedral angles of 5.64?(2) and 3.44?(1)°, respectively. In the crystal, adjacent mol-ecules are assembled by pairs of N-H?O hydrogen bonds into dimers in a head-to-head mode.

Equilibrium data for the cross-metathesis of methyl oleate with cinnamaldehyde.

Project description:Here we present equilibrium data for the cross-metathesis of methyl oleate (MO) with cinnamaldehyde (CA) obtained experimentally from liquid-phase catalytic tests conducted at 323?K. The reaction was carried out in batch reactors, using different reactant molar ratios and the 2nd generation Ru Hoveyda-Grubbs complex as catalyst. Reaction mixtures at the equilibrium were analyzed by gas chromatography. Equilibrium constants were determined by assuming unitary activity coefficients for a cinnamaldehyde/methyl oleate equimolar ratio, and the validity of that approximation was evaluated by calculating the equilibrium conversions for different reactant molar ratios.

Knockdown of triglyceride synthesis does not enhance palmitate lipotoxicity or prevent oleate-mediated rescue in rat hepatocytes.

Project description:Experiments in a variety of cell types, including hepatocytes, consistently demonstrate the acutely lipotoxic effects of saturated fatty acids, such as palmitate (PA), but not unsaturated fatty acids, such as oleate (OA). PA+OA co-treatment fully prevents PA lipotoxicity through mechanisms that are not well defined but which have been previously attributed to more efficient esterification and sequestration of PA into triglycerides (TGs) when OA is abundant. However, this hypothesis has never been directly tested by experimentally modulating the relative partitioning of PA/OA between TGs and other lipid fates in hepatocytes. In this study, we found that addition of OA to PA-treated hepatocytes enhanced TG synthesis, reduced total PA uptake and PA lipid incorporation, decreased phospholipid saturation and rescued PA-induced ER stress and lipoapoptosis. Knockdown of diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT), the rate-limiting step in TG synthesis, significantly reduced TG accumulation without impairing OA-mediated rescue of PA lipotoxicity. In both wild-type and DGAT-knockdown hepatocytes, OA co-treatment significantly reduced PA lipid incorporation and overall phospholipid saturation compared to PA-treated hepatocytes. These data indicate that OA's protective effects do not require increased conversion of PA into inert TGs, but instead may be due to OA's ability to compete against PA for cellular uptake and/or esterification and, thereby, normalize the composition of cellular lipids in the presence of a toxic PA load.

Antifungal Effect of Triglycerol Monolaurate Synthesized by Lipozyme 435-Mediated Esterification.

Project description:This study was designed to synthesize triglycerol monolaurate (TGML) with Lipozyme 435 as the catalyst, and explore its effects on the growth of Aspergillus parasiticus (A. parasiticus) and Aspergillus flavus (A. flavus) and the secretion of aflatoxin b1. The highest content of TGML (49.76%) was obtained at a molar ratio of triglycerol to lauric acid of 1.08, a reaction temperature of 84.93°C, a reaction time of 6 h and an enzyme dosage of 1.32%. After purification by molecular distillation combined with the washes with ethyl acetate and water, the purity of TGML reached 98.3%. Through characterization by electrospray-ionization mass spectrometry, infrared spectrum and nuclear magnetic resonance, the structure of TGML was identified as a linear triglycerol combined with lauroyl at the end. Finally, the inhibitory effects of TGML on the growths of A. parasiticus and A. flavus and the secretion of aflatoxin b1 were evaluated by measuring the colony diameter, the inhibition rate of mycelial growth and the content of mycotoxin in the media. The results indicated that TGML had a stronger inhibitory effects on colony growth and mycelial development of both toxic molds compared to sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate, and the secretions of toxins from A. parasiticus and A. flavus were completely suppressed when adding TGML at 10 and 5 mM, respectively. Based on the above results, TGML may be used as a substitute for traditional antifungal agents in the food industry.

Metabolism of ketone bodies, oleate and glucose in lymphocytes of the rat.

Project description:Isolated incubated lymphocytes utilized acetoacetate, 3-hydroxybutyrate or oleate at about 0.5 mumol/min per g dry wt. These rates were not markedly affected by concanavalin A or by starvation of the donor animal. When ketone bodies replaced glucose in the culture medium, they could not support lymphocyte proliferation when cells were cultured for 48 h. Addition of oleate (0.5 mM) to isolated lymphocytes increased the rate of O2 consumption markedly, suggesting that it could contribute about 30% to O2 consumption. The rate of oleate uptake and the stimulated rate of O2 consumption were maximal at 0.5 M-oleate; this is in contrast with the effect in some other tissues, in which the rate of fatty acid oxidation is linear with concentration up to about 2 mM. Since the normal plasma concentration of fatty acid in the fed state is about 0.5 mM, this suggests that lymphocytes can utilize fatty acids at a maximal rate in the fed state. Ketone bodies or oleate decreased the rate of glucose utilization by incubated lymphocytes; ketone bodies decreased the rate of pyruvate oxidation and increased the intracellular concentration of hexose monophosphate and citrate, suggesting that 6-phosphofructokinase is inhibited by citrate, and hexokinase by glucose 6-phosphate. These effects may be important not so much in conserving glucose in the whole animal but in maintaining the concentrations of glycolytic intermediates necessary for biosynthetic processes during proliferation.

Bakuchiol and ethyl (linoleate/oleate) synergistically modulate endocannabinoid tone in keratinocytes and repress inflammatory pathway mRNAs

Project description:The endocannabinoid (eCB) system plays an active role in epidermal homeostasis. Phytocannabinoids such as CBD modulate this system but also act through eCB-independent mechanisms. This study evaluated effects of CBD, bakuchiol (BAK) and ethyl (linoleate/oleate) (ELN) in keratinocytes (KCs) and reconstituted human epidermis (RHE). Molecular docking simulations showed that each compound binds the active site of the eCB carrier fatty-acid-binding protein 5 (FABP5). However, BAK and ethyl linoleate bound this site with highest affinity when combined 1:1 (w/w) and in vitro assays showed that BAK+ELN most effectively inhibited FABP5 and fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH). In TNF-stimulated KCs, BAK+ELN reversed TNF-induced expression shifts and uniquely down-regulated type I interferon genes and PTGS2 (COX-2). BAK+ELN also repressed expression of genes linked to KC differentiation but up-regulated those associated with proliferation. Finally, BAK+ELN inhibited cortisol secretion in RHE skin (not observed with CBD). These results support a model in which BAK and ELN synergistically interact to inhibit eCB degradation, favoring eCB mobilization and inhibition of downstream inflammatory mediators (e.g., TNF, COX-2, type I interferon). Topical combination of these ingredients may thus enhance cutaneous eCB tone or potentiate other modulators, suggesting new ways to modulate the eCB system for innovative skincare product development.

Base-mediated stereospecific synthesis of aryloxy and amino substituted ethyl acrylates.

Project description:The stereospecific synthesis of aryloxy and amino substituted E- and Z-ethyl-3-acrylates is of interest because of their potential in the polymer industry and in medicinal chemistry. During work on a copper-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of ethyl (E)- and (Z)-3-iodoacrylates with phenols and N-heterocycles, we discovered a very simple (nonmetallic) method for the stereospecific synthesis of aryloxy and amino substituted acrylates. To study this long-standing problem on the stereoselectivity of aryloxy and amino substituted acrylates, a series of O- and N-substituted nucleophiles was allowed to react with ethyl (E)- and (Z)-3-iodoacrylates. Screening of different bases indicated that DABCO (1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane) afforded successful conversion of ethyl (E)- and (Z)-3-iodoacrylates into aryloxy and amino substituted ethyl acrylates in a stereospecific manner. Herein are the details of this DABCO-mediated stereospecific synthesis of aryloxy and amino substituted E- or Z-acrylates.
