Popis: | Cells of Escherichia coli expressing cyclo- hexanone monooxygenase catalyzed a highly enan- tioselective Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of a-substi- tuted cyanocyclohexanones, leading to the corre- sponding enantiopure caprolactones (ees > 97 %). Classical kinetic resolution and regiodivergent par- allel kinetic resolution patterns were observed, de- pending on the length of the linear chain at the alpha position. Regioselectivitywas compared with that of chemical BV oxidations. Cells revealed an outstanding stabilitysince 50 % of the specific BV activitywas retained after 42 day s of storage, which facilitates their use in biotransformations. |
