1/15
3. Enzymes in organic synthesis
Literature: F. Theil, Enzyme in der Organischen Synthese, Spektrum, 1997,
Heidelberg.
Enzymes in brief
biocatalysts
proteins (or RNA chains: ribozymes)
complex three-dimensional structures (stereochemistry important)
key/lock vs induced-fit model
use in organic synthesis: usually isolated enzymes or specific enzymes in livingcells
use in biotechnology/brewery: living organisms, involvement of multiple enzymes

class name function importance in
organic synthesis
1 oxidoreductases oxidations and reductions high
2 transferases transfer of functional groups low
3 hydrolases hydrolysis and condensation very high
reactions
4 lyases addition of small molecules to medium
double bonds and elimination
reactions
5 isomerases isomerization reactions low
6 ligases formation of covalent bonds low

Characteristics of the use of enzymes in organic synthesis
Advantages
significant enhancements of reaction rates possible mild reaction conditions: pH 7, aqueous solution
highly specific reactions (no/little byproducts)
high regio- and stereoselectivity
environmentally friendly
Disadvantages
often low substrate concentrations
often inhibition by substrates or products
only one enantiomer available
often relatively high sensitivity
activity often depends on origin, often not well-defined
often expensive

Stereoselective hydrogenation of ketones
Prelog rule: for most dehydrogenases preferred attack from the Reface
use of second enzyme for cofactor regeneration
alternative: use of whole cells, which provide cofactor regeneration system
most popular: bakers yeast

Characteristics of the use of bakers yeast in organic synthesis
Advantages
easy availability regeneration of cofactor by other enzymes present in the cells (use of sucrose as
co-substrate)
broad substrate scope
Disadvantages
complexity: contains different dehydrogenases with different activities
contains additional enzymes (e.g., hydrolases), which can catalyze side reactions
much biomass relative to substrate: tedious work-up
low substrate concentration: low productivity

Esterification catalyzed by lipases
works well for linear aliphatic carboxylic acids
acylation reagents: free carboxylic acids (H2O needs to be removed from equilibrium)
esteractivated esters, e.g. RCOOCH2CF3
use of various organic solvents possible (C6H14, Et2O, or CHCl3)
good for kinetic resolutions of racemic mixtures of alcohols
good for regioselective acylations in carbohydrate chemistry:
lipases also catalyze formation of amides
