Regiodivergent and stereoselective hydroxyazidation of alkenes by biocatalytic cascades.

ABSTRACT: Asymmetric functionalization of alkenes allows the direct synthesis of a wide range of chiral compounds. Vicinal hydroxyazidation of alkenes provides a desirable path to 1,2-azidoalcohols; however, existing methods are limited by the control of stereoselectivity and regioselectivity. Herein, we describe a dual-enzyme cascade strategy for regiodivergent and stereoselective hydroxyazidation of alkenes, affording various enantiomerically pure 1,2-azidoalcohols. The biocatalytic cascade process is designed by combining styrene monooxygenase-catalyzed asymmetric epoxidation of alkenes and halohydrin dehalogenase-catalyzed regioselective ring opening of epoxides with azide. Additionally, a one-pot chemo-enzymatic route to chiral β-hydroxytriazoles from alkenes is developed via combining the biocatalytic cascades and Cu-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition.

Project description:Biomolecule-loaded nucleic acid-functionalized carboxymethyl cellulose hydrogel-stabilized microcapsules (diameter ca. 2 μm) are introduced as cell-like containments. The microcapsules are loaded with two DNA tetrahedra, T1 and T2, functionalized with guanosine-rich G-quadruplex subunits, and/or with native enzymes (glucose oxidase, GOx, and/or β-galactosidase, β-gal). In the presence of K+-ions and hemin, the T1/T2 tetrahedra constituents, loaded in the microcapsules, assemble into a hemin/G-quadruplex bridged tetrahedra dimer DNAzyme catalyzing the oxidation of Amplex Red to Resorufin by generating H2O2. In the presence of co-loaded GOx or GOx/β-gal, the GOx//T1/T2 hemin/G-quadruplex cascade catalyzing the glucose-mediated oxidation of Amplex Red to Resorufin, and the three-biocatalysts cascade consisting of β-gal//GOx//hemin/G-quadruplex bridged T1/T2 catalyzing the lactose-driven oxidation of Amplex Red to Resorufin proceed in the microcapsules. Enhanced biocatalytic transformations in the microcapsules, as compared to the performance of the reactions in a homogeneous phase, are observed, due to the proximity of the biocatalysts in a confined volume. As the synthetic methodology to prepare the microcapsules yields boundaries functionalized with complementary nucleic acid tethers, the dynamic association of different microcapsules, loaded selectively with biomolecular catalysts, proceeds. The dynamic dimerization of GOx-loaded microcapsules and hemin/G-quadruplex bridged T1/T2 DNAzyme-loaded microcapsules yields effective intercommunicated microcapsules driving the GOx//hemin/G-quadruplex bridged T1/T2 DNAzyme cascade. In addition, the dynamic dimerization of GOx-loaded microcapsules with β-gal//hemin/G-quadruplex bridged T1/T2-loaded microcapsules enables the bi-directional intercommunicated operation of the lactose-stimulated three catalysts β-gal//GOx//hemin/G-quadruplex bridged T1/T2 DNAzyme cascade. The guided separation and formation of dynamic supramolecular dimer microcapsular containments, and the dictated switchable operation of intercommunicated biocatalytic cascades are demonstrated.
