Abstract
Toxin A, a precursor to naturally occurring aspergillomarasmine A, aspergillomarasmine B, lycomarasmine and related aminopolycarboxylic acids, was synthesized as the desired (2S,2'S)-diastereomer on a multigram-scale (>99% conversion, 82% isolated yield, dr > 95 : 5) from commercially available starting materials using the enzyme ethylenediamine-N,N'-disuccinic acid lyase. A single-step protection route of this chiral synthon was developed to aid N-sulfonylation/-alkylation and reductive amination at the terminal primary amine for easy derivatization, followed by global deprotection to give the corresponding toxin A derivatives, including lycomarasmine, in moderate to good yields (23-66%) and with high stereopurity (dr > 95 : 5). Furthermore, a chemoenzymatic route was developed to introduce a click handle on toxin A (yield 72%, dr > 95 : 5) and its cyclized congener for further analogue design. Finally, a chemoenzymatic route towards the synthesis of photocaged aspergillomarasmine B (yield 8%, dr > 95 : 5) was established, prompting further steps into smart prodrug design and precision delivery. These new synthetic methodologies have the prospective of facilitating research into the finding of more selective and potent metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) inhibitors, which are urgently needed to combat MBL-based infections.

Abstract
(S)-Phosphonothrixin is a phosphonate natural product produced by Saccharothrix sp. ST-888 that exhibits herbicidal activity. The previously reported asymmetric synthesis of (S)-phosphonothrixin is laborious and difficult to reproduce. In this study, we developed a scalable and concise enantioselective total synthesis of (S)-phosphonothrixin via two different synthetic routes by the enzymatic resolution of a known racemic epoxy alcohol. The second-generation synthesis was more efficient in terms of the overall yield (15%) and the number of steps (7) and afforded a unique cyclic phosphonate (phostone) as the product of the C-P bond formation reaction, which was converted to (S)-cyclic phosphonothrixin. Both (S)-phosphonothrixin and (S)-cyclic phosphonothrixin induced chlorosis in the plant Arabidopsis thaliana. However, (S)-cyclic phosphonothrixin exhibited lower activity than (S)-phosphonothrixin owing to its fixed conformation, as evidenced by a structure-activity relationship study. This study paves the way for the elucidation of the detailed mode of action of (S)-phosphonothrixin.

Abstract
Salidroside, the main bioactive compound isolated from the plant source of Rhodiola rosea L, possesses broad-spectrum pharmacological activities, but suffers from the low cell membranes permeability and alimentary absorption due to its high polarity. Therefore, a whole-cell catalytic strategy for the synthesis of salidroside esters was explored to improve its lipophilicity. The results showed that Aspergillus oryzae demonstrated the highest biocatalytic activity among the microbial strains tested. For the synthesis of salidroside caprylate, the optimum conditions of reaction medium, Aspergillus oryzae amount, molar ratio of vinyl caprylate to salidroside and reaction temperature were acetone, 30 mg/ml, 10°C and 40°C, respectively. Under these conditions, the initial reaction rate was 15.36 mM/h, and substrate conversion and regioselectivity all reached 99%. Moreover, the results indicated that although various 6'-monoesters derivatives of salidroside were exclusively obtained with excellent conversions (96%-99%), the reaction rate varied greatly with different chain-length acyl donors. This study details an efficient and cost-effective biocatalytic approach for the synthesis of salidroside esters by using Aspergillus oryzae as a catalyst for the first time. Considering the whole cell catalytic efficiency and operational stability, this strategy may provide a new opportunity to develop green industrial processes production for ester derivatives of salidroside and its analogues.

Abstract
Alkaloids are a group of natural products with interesting pharmacological properties and a long history of medicinal application. Their complex molecular structures have fascinated chemists for decades, and their total synthesis still poses a considerable challenge. In a previous review, we have illustrated how biocatalysis can make valuable contributions to the asymmetric synthesis of alkaloids. The chemo-enzymatic strategies discussed therein have been further explored and improved in recent years, and advances in amine biocatalysis have vastly expanded the opportunities for incorporating enzymes into synthetic routes towards these important natural products. The present review summarises modern developments in chemo-enzymatic alkaloid synthesis since 2013, in which the biocatalytic transformations continue to take an increasingly 'central' role.

Abstract
Reductions play a key role in organic synthesis, producing chiral products with new functionalities. Enzymes can catalyse such reactions with exquisite stereo-, regio- and chemoselectivity, leading the way to alternative shorter classical synthetic routes towards not only high-added-value compounds but also bulk chemicals. In this review we describe the synthetic state-of-the-art and potential of enzymes that catalyse reductions, ranging from carbonyl, enone and aromatic reductions to reductive aminations.

Abstract
One central challenge for XXI century chemists is the development of sustainable processes that do not represent a risk either to humanity or to the environment. In this regard, the search for more efficient and clean alternatives to achieve the chemical activation of molecules involved in chemical transformations has played a prominent role in recent years. The use of microwave or UV-Vis light irradiation, and mechanochemical activation is already widespread in many laboratories. Nevertheless, an additional condition to achieve "green" processes comes from the point of view of so-called atom economy. The removal of solvents from chemical reactions generally leads to cleaner, more efficient and more economical processes. This review presents several illustrative applications of the use of sustainable protocols in the synthesis of organic compounds under solvent-free reaction conditions.

Abstract
Ketoreductase from growing cells of Klebsiella pneumoniae (NBRC 3319) acts as an efficient reagent for converting racemic α-benzyl/cinnamyl substituted-β-ketoesters to the corresponding β-hydroxy esters with excellent yields and stereoselectivities (ee and de >99 %). The reactions described herein followed a biocatalytic dynamic kinetic reductive resolution (DKRR) pathway, which is reported for the first time with such substrates. It was found that the enzyme system can accept substituted mono-aryl rings with different electronic natures. In addition, it also accepts a substituted naphthyl ring and heteroaryl ring in the α-position of the parent β-ketoester. The synthesized enantiopure β-hydroxy esters were then synthetically manipulated to valuable tetrahydropyran building blocks.

Abstract
One-pot reactions that combine non-enzymatic and biocatalytic transformations represent an emerging strategy in chemical synthesis. Some of the most powerful chemoenzymatic methodologies, although uncommon, are those that form a carbon–carbon (C–C) bond and a stereocenter at one of the reacting carbons, thereby streamlining traditional retrosynthetic disconnections. Here we report the one-pot, chemoenzymatic conversion of amides to enantioenriched alcohols. This transformation combines a nickel-catalyzed Suzuki–Miyaura coupling of amides in aqueous medium with an asymmetric, biocatalytic reduction to provide diarylmethanol derivatives in high yields and enantiomeric excesses. The synthetic utility of this platform is underscored by the formal syntheses of both antipodes of the pharmaceutical orphenadrine, which rely on ketoreductase enzymes that instill complementary stereoselectivities. We provide an explanation for the origins of stereoselectivity based on an analysis of the enzyme binding pockets.
