방향족 에폭사이드 기질에 대한 입체선택적 가수분해 활성이 우수한 Aspergillus niger LK를 이용하여 광학활성 (S)-para-nitrostyrene oxide를 제조하였다. 수용액에서 기질 의 낮은 용해도를 극복하기 위하여 유기용매에서 광학분할 반응을 수행하였으며, 생촉매 활성 저하가 가장 적은 dodecane을 유기용매로 선정하였다. 반응온도 3$0^{\circ}C$ 및 최적 water content 2% (v/v)의 조건에서 약 10시간 정도의 반응을 통해 ee 값이 100 %인 광학적으로 순수한 (S)-para-nitrostyrene oxide를 37% 정도(이론수율 : 50 %)의 높은 수율로 얻을 수 있었다.

An enantioselective lipase gene (esf) for the kinetic resolution of optically active (S)-flurbiprofen was cloned from the new strain Serratia marcescens ES-2. The esf gene was composed of a 1,845-bp open reading frame encoding 614 amino acid residues with a calculated molecular mass of 64,978 Da. The lipase expressed in E. coli was purified by a three-step procedure, and it showed preferential substrate specificity toward the medium-chain-length fatty acids. The esf gene encoding the enantioselective lipase was reintroduced into the parent strain S. marcescens ES-2 for secretory overexpression. The transformant S. marcescens BESF secreted up to 217kU/ml of the enantioselective lipase, about 54-fold more than the parent strain, after supplementing 3.0% Triton X-207. The kinetic resolution of (S)-flurbiprofen was carried out even at an extremely high (R,S)-flurbiprofen ethyl ester [(R,S)-FEE] concentration of 500 mM, 130 kU of the S. marcescens ES-2 lipase per mmol of (R,S)-FEE, and 1,000 mM of succinyl ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ as the dispenser at $37^{\circ}C$ for 12h, achieving the high enantiomeric excess and conversion yield of 98% and 48%, respectively.

Enantioselective macromer of trimesic acid was prepared using S(-) menthol with trimesoyl chloride on polyimide (PI) ultrafiltration membrane. The chemical composition of macromer as well as polyimide ultrafiltration membrane was determined by ATR-FTIR Spectroscopy. The optical resolution of chiral alcohols was performed in pressure driven process. The effect of monomer solutions concentration, effect of air-drying time of S(-) menthol solution, effect of reaction time, effect of operating pressure, effect of feed concentration of racemate on the performance of macromer was studied. The synthesised material exhibits separation of chiral alcohols (menthol ~23% and sobrelol ~21%).

Xanthorrhizol is a bisabolane type of natural sesquiterpene, the major component of essential oils of Curcuma xanthorrhiza. 2-(3-Methoxy-4-methylphenyl)propan-1-ol and 2-(3-hydroxy-4-methyl phenyl)propan-1-ol could be essential building block for enantioselective synthesis of xanthorrhizol. Enantioselective (c = 53%, E = $80{\pm}3$) for R-(+)-2-(3-hydroxy-4-methylphenyl) propan-1-ol and (c = 58%, E = $27{\pm}1$) for R-(+)-2-(3-methoxy-4-methylphenyl) propan-1-ol resolution processes were developed via lipase-catalyzed reaction. We found lipase Aspergillus oryzae (AOL) and Porcine pancreas (PPL) are selective to transesterification and hydrolysis in organic and aqueous phase. Modified demethylated substrate is appropriate for enantioselective hydrolysis reaction without any additives. Enantiopure chiral alcohol was crystallized from ethyl acetate/n-hexane co-solvent system. Gram scale resolved chiral intermediate will facilitate the synthesis of the unnatural S-(+)-xanthorrhizol, the corresponding isomer of the natural one.

Chiral epoxides are highly valuable intermediates, used for the synthesis of pharmaceutical drugs and agrochemicals. They have broad scope of market demand because of their applications. A major challenge in modern organic chemistry is to generate such compounds in high yields, with high stereo- and regio-selectivities. Epoxide hydrolases (EH) are promising biocatalysts for the preparation of chiral epoxides and vicinal diols. They exhibit high enantioselectivity for their substrates, and can be effectively used in the resolution of racemic epoxides through enantioselective hydrolysis. The selective hydrolysis of a racemic epoxide can produce both the corresponding diols and the unreacted epoxides with high enantiomeric excess (ee) value. The potential of microbial EH to produce chiral epoxides and vicinal diol has prompted researchers to explore their use in the synthesis of epoxides and diols with high ee values.

An enantioselective ring opening of racemic terminal epoxides has been achieved by using heterobimetallic cobalt salen complexes with variety of nucleophiles. They were proven to be highly enantioselective and reactive for the synthesis of valuable chiral building blocks in enantio-riched forms up to 98% ee.

A newly isolated Aspergillus niger possessing the novel epoxide hydrolase(EHase) activity was investigated for the enantioselective hydrolysis of racemic aromatic epoxides. The gene encoding EHase was cloned by RT-PCR, and molecular characteristics of the EHase gene were compared with other microbial EHases. The cloned gene encodes 398 amino acids with a deduced molecular mass of 44.5 kDa and pI of 4.83, and sequence homology with other microbial EHase was low. Functional recombinant EHase could be obtained by heterologous expressions in E. coli. Enantioselectivity of recombinant EHase was tested for valuable aromatic epoxide intermediates. Reaction conditions of EHase-catalyzed asymmetric resolution were optimized for the production of chiral styrene oxide.

The chiral B-isopinocampheyl-9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-potassium hydride (IPC-9-BBN-KH) and potassium B-isopinocampheyl-9-boratabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (K IPC-9-BBNH) systems were applied to the enantioselective reduction of representative racemic epoxides, namely 1,2-epoxybutane, 1,2-epoxyoctane, 3,3-dimethyl-1,2-epoxybutane and styrene oxide. In the case of IPC-9-BBN-KH system, the optical yields are in the range of 8.3-37.4$\%$ ee. However, the system of K IPC-9-BBNH provides significantly lower optical yields, showing 7-22.5$\%$ ee. These results strongly suggest that the enantioselective coordination of chiral organoborane to the epoxy oxygen of racemic epoxides plays an important role in this resolution.
