Preparation, structure, and optical properties of chiral sulfoxides and disulfoxide with a trithiole ring

HETEROATOM CHEMISTRY, Issue 1 2003

Optically active 4,9-diethyl[1,4]-dithiino[5,6- f]benzo[1,2,3]trithiole 5-oxide (3) and 4,9-diethyl[1,4]dithiino[5,6- f]benzo[1,2,3]trithiole 5,8-dioxide (4) were obtained by the asymmetric oxidation of 6,11-diethyl[1,4]dithiino[5,6- h]benzo[1,2,3,4,5]pentathiepin (1). The reaction was accompanied by desulfurization and ring-contraction reactions of the pentathiepin ring. Similarly, optically active 4,8-diethyl[1,3]dithiolo[4,5- f]benzo[1,2,3]trithiole 5-oxide (7) was produced by the analogous asymmetric oxidation of 6,10-diethyl[1,3]dithiolo[4,5- h]benzo[1,2,3,4,5]pentathiepin (2). The specific rotations of 3, 4, and 7 were measured in chloroform, and their optical purity was verified by 1H NMR with a shift reagent [Eu(hfc)3]. The structures of 4 and 7 were determined by X-ray crystallography using Cu K, radiation, and the absolute configuration of the sulfinyl group was examined based on the Flack parameter, which revealed that 4 has an RR configuration, while 7 has an S configuration. The circular dichroism spectra of 3, 4, and 7 were measured in chloroform. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Titration and Assignment of Residues that Regulate the Enantioselectivity of Phenylacetone Monooxygenase

ADVANCED SYNTHESIS & CATALYSIS (PREVIOUSLY: JOURNAL FUER PRAKTISCHE CHEMIE), Issue 8-9 2007
Francesca Zambianchi
Abstract Phenylacetone monooxygense (PAMO) from Thermobifida fusca was employed for the asymmetric oxidation of thioanisole (sulfooxidation) and of racemic 2-phenylpropionaldehyde (Baeyer,Villiger oxidation). A pH dependence of enantioselectivity was observed in both cases. Two different residues, with pKa values of 7.8±0.2 and 9.2±0.2, appeared to be responsible for the pH effects on PAMO enantioselectivity. The protonation of Arg337 and the FAD:C4a-hydroperoxide/FAD:C4a-peroxide equilibrium were identified as the major factors responsible for the fine-tuning of PAMO enantioselectivity in Baeyer,Villiger oxidation and sulfooxidation, respectively.
