ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To produce (S)-3-hydroxy-1-(3-(trifluoromethyl)-5,6-dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyrazin-7(8H)-yl]-4-(2,4,5-trifluorophenyl)butan-1-one (S)-1 from 4-oxo-4-[3-(trifluoromethyl)-5,6-dihydro [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyrazin-7(8H)-yl)-1-(2,4,5-trifluorophenyl)butan-2-one (2) by microbial bioreduction.RESULTS:
A new isolate of Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes reduced enantioselectively prochiral ketone 2 to chiral alcohol (S)-1. Whole cells of the bacterium were tolerant towards 20 % (v/v) DMSO and 10 g 2/l. Under the optimal conditions, the preparative-scale bioreduction yielded (S)-1 at 90 % yield and >99 % ee. Cells could be re-used with the yield and ee of product being 45 % and >99 %, respectively, after five cycles.CONCLUSION:
Bioreduction using whole cells of P. pseudoalcaligenes is an attractive approach to produce (S)-1, as a chiral intermediate of the anti-diabetic drug, sitagliptin.Palabras clave
