Category: benzisoxazole. Aromatic heterocyclic compounds can also be classified according to the number of heteroatoms contained in the heterocycle: single heteroatom, two heteroatoms, three heteroatoms and four heteroatoms. Compound: Methyl tetrahydrofuran-2-carboxylate, is researched, Molecular C6H10O3, CAS is 37443-42-8, about Asymmetric hydrolysis of 2-hydroxy-carboxylic esters using recombinant Escherichia coli. Author is Nakagawa, Atsushi; Kato, Ko; Shinmyo, Atsuhiko; Suzuki, Toshio.
Optically active 2-hydroxy-carboxylates are important compounds for their use as intermediates in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and stereoblock polymers. Enterobacter sp. DS-S-75 and the recombinant Escherichia coli harboring the 4-chloro-3-hydroxybutyrate (CHB) hydrolase gene from the strain DS-S-75 showed asym. hydrolytic activity towards 2-hydroxy-carboxylates, as well as towards CHB. It was discussed that the hydroxyl group in the substrate was particularly important for the asym. hydrolytic activity of the CHB hydrolase, and as such, it was re-designated to EnHCH (hydroxy-carboxylic ester hydrolase derived from Enterobacter sp.). Using the recombinant cell, both the reaction rate and the concentration of the substrates were significantly improved upon when compared to that of DS-S-75. Optically active 2-hydroxy-carboxylates could be synthesized on a practical basis for industrial production in this report.
