A reasonable molecular modeling equation with 4-parameters was achieved for quantitative structure-property/activity relationship (QSPR/QSAR) by stepwise multiple regression (SMR) that the variable was introduced item by item in significant level order. A high correlation coefficient (R = 0.980) demonstrates that the model is able to well express a quantitative relation between stereoselectivity and the reactant structures as quantitative structure-reactivity/stereoselectivity relationship (QSRR/QSSR). The multiple correlation coefficient (Rcv= 0.964) was tested through cross-validation with the leave-one-out (LOO) procedure. The above results show that the model possesses high estimation stability and good prediction ability between the amount of both cis and trans isomers in products and reactants.展开更多

Here, a novel strain QC-1 that efficiently transforms 4-hydroxy-2-butanone to(R)-1,3-butanediol was isolated from soil samples. Based on morphological, physiological, and biochemical tests and 5.8 S-internal transcribed spacer sequencing, the strain was identified as Pichia kudriavzevii QC-1. The reaction conditions were optimized to 35 ℃, pH 8.0, rotation speed 200 rpm, and 6:5 mass ratio of glucose to 4-hydroxy-2-butanone. Evaluation of the effects of 4-hydroxy-2-butanone concentrations on yield and cell survival rate showed that 85.60 g·L^-1 product accumulated, with an enantiomeric excess of more than 99%, when 30 g·L^-14-hydroxy-2-butanone was added at 0, 10, and 30 h in a 3-L bioreactor. Thus, strain QC-1 showed excellent catalytic activity and stereoselectivity for the synthesis of(R)-1,3-butanediol from 4-hydroxy-2-butanone.展开更多

S-(-)-1-(1-naphthyl)- ethylamine (S-NEA) was utilized as chiral derivatization reagent and pre-column derivatization RP-HPLC method was established for the separation and assay of the three pairs of enantiomer. The method had good linear relationship over the investigated concentration range without interference. The average extraction efficiency was higher than 85% in different systems, and the intra-day and inter-day precisions were less than 15%. In serum albumin, the protein binding of etodolac enantiomers showed significant stereoselectivity that the affinity of S-enantiomer was stronger than R-enantiomer, and the stereoselectivity ratio reached 6.06; Flurbiprofen had only weak stereoselectivity in HSA, and ketoprofen had no stereoselectivity at all. Scatchard curves showed that all the three chiral drugs had two types of binding sites in HSA.展开更多

METHODS: Sixteen adult Chinese Han volunteers with an average age of 20 years were given a single oral dose of 20 mg racemic propranolol. Human urine at indicated time after administration was collected and S-(-)-propranolol glucuronide and R-(+)-propranolol glucuronide were determined simultaneously by using RP-HPLC. RESULTS: The mean values of k were 0.19±0.04 h-1 and 0.28±0.06 h-1, of t1/2 3.56±0.73 h and 2.45±0.50 h, of Tmax 2.21±0.45 and 1.75±0.33 h, and of Xu0-24 5.65±0.98 and 2.95±0.62 μmoL for S-(-)- and R-(+)-propranolol glucuronide, respectively. The cumulative excretion percentages in urine of closes were 14.7±2.46% and 7.68±1.60% for S-(-)-and R-(+)-propranolol glucuronide, respectively. The results showed the elimination rate constant k of S-(-)-propranolol glucuronide was less than that of R-(+)-propranolol glucuronide; and the elimination half-life (t1/2), Tmax and the cumulative excretion amount (Xu0-24) of R-(+)-propranolol glucuronide were significantly less than that of S-(-)-propranolol glucuronide. CONCLUSION: The propranolol glucuronidation of the side-chain undergoes stereoselective excretion in Chinese Han population after an oral administration of racemic propranolol.展开更多

This esterase was overexpressed in E. coli BL21(DE3) and further functionally characterized. Under optimal conditions(10 mmol/L substrate, p H 6.0, 2 h at 40 ℃), this esterase can hydrolyze racemic methyl mandelate to( R)-methyl mandelate with very high optical purity(e. e. 〉99%) and yield(nearly 90%). Interestingly, the stereoselectivity of this esterase is opposite to that of two previously reported lipases that can generate( S)-methyl mandelate through the hydrolysis of racemic methyl mandelate. No organic solvents or other additives were required to optimize the optical purity and production of the fi nal chiral product(R)-methyl mandelate, which can potentially simplify the production procedure of( R)-methyl mandelate catalyzed by esterase.展开更多

文摘Cu-catalyzed endo-selective asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides with ethenesulfonyl fluorides(ESFs) was successfully developed, this protocol provided an efficient and facile method to a wide range of chiral pyrrolidine-3-sulfonyl fluorides with good to excellent results(up to 87% yield,>20:1 dr, 94% ee). Some other chiral sulfonyl derivatives, such as sulfonamide and sulfonate, were easily accessible through simple transformations with high yields, which demonstrated that the cycloaddition products could be synthetically useful in the sulfur(VI) fluoride exchange(Su FEx) chemistry.

文摘Genomic mining has identifi ed a novel microbial alkaline esterase from the Indian Ocean. This esterase was overexpressed in E. coli BL21(DE3) and further functionally characterized. Under optimal conditions(10 mmol/L substrate, p H 6.0, 2 h at 40 ℃), this esterase can hydrolyze racemic methyl mandelate to( R)-methyl mandelate with very high optical purity(e. e. 〉99%) and yield(nearly 90%). Interestingly, the stereoselectivity of this esterase is opposite to that of two previously reported lipases that can generate( S)-methyl mandelate through the hydrolysis of racemic methyl mandelate. No organic solvents or other additives were required to optimize the optical purity and production of the fi nal chiral product(R)-methyl mandelate, which can potentially simplify the production procedure of( R)-methyl mandelate catalyzed by esterase.
