Enantioseparation of the esters of α-N-acetyl amino acids by lipase in ionic liquid

Abstract: Chiral alpha-amino acids have been obtained via enzymatic resolution in ionic liquid medium. The acetyl esters of a series of amino acids were separated by enzyme porcine pancreas lipase (PPL) in an aqueous solution of N-ethyl pyridinium trifluoroacetate, [EtPy]+ [CF3OO]-. A comparative study with organic solvent acetonitrile shows that the ionic liquids provide a better medium for enzymatic resolution.

“…[8][9][10]12,15 Lipases tolerate nonnatural environments surprisingly well, and have been well established as promising catalysts for biotransformations in organic solvents 2 or ILs. [14][15][16][17] On the other hand, acyl transfer reactions catalyzed by lipases with vinyl acetate as acyl donor have become a standard and popular technique for the kinetic resolution of racemic alcohols. However, the lipase has to be chosen carefully because the released by-product of this reaction, acetaldehyde, may cause a dramatic loss in the activity possibly due to the Schiff's base formation of lysine residues in the lipase structure.…”

“…The observed activities were similar to those achieved in traditional organic solvents, but the stability of the enzyme was markedly enhanced. Following this pioneering work, the potential application of lipase, [14][15][16][17] protease, 18,19 esterase, 20,21 amidase, 22 epoxide hydrolase, 23 peroxidase, 24 alcohol dehydrogenase, 25 or hydroxynitrile lyase 26,27 in IL-containing systems was explored, and many enzymes were demonstrated to be active in ILs, showing comparable or even higher activity, selectivity, and stability than in organic solvents. For example, the replacement of typical organic solvents by ILs in the lipase-catalyzed asymmetric acylation of amines with carboxylic acids has led to increased reaction rate and higher enantioselectivity.…”

“…The enantioselectivity of BCL increased from 10~40 to > 200 after coating the lipase with 1-butyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium (BMMIM) (poly(oxyethylene)alkyl sulfate) [52]. The enantioselectivity of porcine pancreatic lipase (PPL) in the hydrolysis of methyl or ethyl esters of N-acetyl amino acids increased up to 10-fold in 15% N-ethylpyridinium (CF 3 COO) as compared to acetonitrile: from E = 2.3 to E = 23 for threonine methyl ester [53].…”

“…This reaction has also been investigated as a useful path to the resolution of racemates of the amino acids, and work in this area was reviewed by Miyazawa. 23 More recently, Malhotra and Zhao 24 have researched the enantioseparation of the esters of a-amino acids by lipase in an ionic liquid.…”
