  • the 2-methyl-2-phenylmalonic acid jetyl ester (5) used in the enzymatic reaction is prochiral and the resulting 2-methyl-2-phenylmalonic acid monoethyl ester (6) and 2-phenylpropionic acid (7) has an asymmetric carbon. Therefore, if these reactions occur within the active site of the enzyme, the product can be expected to be an optically active form.
  • the absolute configuration of product 6 cannot be determined because the retention time of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is not known and there is no literature value of optical rotation. Therefore, it was determined by comparing the absolute configuration of the product with porcine liver esterase (PLE).
  • Table 1 shows that the product 6 at both temperatures is S-isomer with a high enantiomeric excess of 96-99% ee. Furthermore, the other product 7 in the reaction at 60 ° C was also found to be an optically active form of S form. Since two optically active products were obtained in this way, it was confirmed that enzymes were involved in this reaction.
  • reaction pathway in formula 1 0 60 The first route predicted from Chemical Formula 10 is that decarboxylation occurs, 2-phenylpropionic acid ethyl ester (16) is formed, and further ester hydrolysis occurs. The second is that ester hydrolysis takes place first, 2-methyl-2-phenylmalonic acid (17) is produced, and decarboxylation takes place.
  • the intermediates (16, 17) of these two predicted pathways have not been detected. However, since this enzyme does not have AMDase activity, it is presumed that it is a pathway via intermediate 16.
  • These reaction pathways can be determined by conducting an enzymatic reaction using each of the intermediates 16 and 17 and examining the progress of the reaction.
  • the product of the reaction to substrate 10 was carboxylic acid 14 instead of half ester.
  • the following results were obtained by following the reaction with TLC (Fig. 9). From Fig. 9, when all of the substrate 10 has been reacted (144 hours later), the product was only carboxylic acid 14. However, 12 hours after the start of the reaction, TLC analysis confirmed 2 Hafster 18 I was able to do it. Therefore, the reaction route of Chemical Formula 12 could be estimated.
  • Substrate 8 whose structure is shown in Fig. 12 has the methyl group of Substrate 5 substituted with an ethyl group. This suggests that the reason for the longer reaction time is that the electron donating property of the alkyl group is higher than that of the methyl group. Another possible factor is the steric hindrance of the ethyl group. The ethyl group is more sterically hindered than the methyl group, so it is presumed that it was less susceptible to hydrolysis.
  • the influence of the reaction time is due to the high electron donating property and steric hindrance of the ethyl group.
  • Substrate 9 whose structure is shown in Fig. 13 has the phenyl group of Substrate 5 substituted with a benzyl group.
  • a methylene group was inserted between the phenyl group and the ⁇ carbon. This has an effect on the carbonyl carbon inserted more than the phenyl group.
  • the electron donating property of the methylene group is larger (Fig. 13). Therefore, it is suggested that this reaction time is also caused by the electron donating property of the methylene group inserted next to the phenyl group.
  • Substrate 10 is a substrate in which a nitro group is added to the p-position of the phenyl group of substrate 5. Since the nitro and phenyl groups are electron withdrawing, the electron density of the carbonyl carbon of this substrate is significantly reduced. Therefore, the reaction time should be shortened. However, the reaction time was longer than that of substrate 5. As described above, since the substrate 10 is a domino type reaction, the reactivity of hydrolysis cannot be compared based on the reaction time. Therefore, we compare it with the reaction of substrate 5 at 60 ° C.
  • reaction time is the time until all of the substrate has reacted. Then, half-ester 6 was obtained in Chemical Formula 1, while half ester 18 could not be obtained in Chemical Formula 1-4. From this, it can be inferred that in the decarboxylation reaction, the reactivity of 18 was higher than that of Ifest 6 due to the electron withdrawing property of the nitro group.
  • Substrate 11 is a substrate in which a methyl group is added to the p-position of the phenyl group of substrate 5. This p-position methyl group is electron donating, so the electron density of carbonyl carbon of this substrate is higher than that of substrate 5. Therefore, it was predicted that the reaction time would be longer as with substrates 8 and 9, but the reaction time was shorter (Chemical Formula 15).
  • the reaction conditions for the substrate 10 are alkaline, which is a condition for promoting the decarboxylation reaction.
  • esterase ST0071 showed the same stereoselectivity with respect to all the substrates used in this example, and that stereoselectivity was reversed with PLE.
  • the size of the steric hindrance of the alkyl group was found to affect the enantiomeric excess.
  • Esterase ST0071 was found to hydrolyze ⁇ -arylmalic acid ketyl ester, which is highly sterically hindered and hardly hydrolyzed, with high stereoselectivity to produce a half ester.
