Abstract
ABSTRACT
Ethyl (R)-2-benzyloxy-2-isopropylhydrogenmalonate is a key intermediate for the synthesis of the side chain in ergopeptines. In this work, we adopted a method to prepare enantiomerically pure title monoester via immobilized Candida antarctica lipase B (Novozym 435)-catalyzed hydrolysis of the corresponding diester.

Abstract
Preparation of optically-pure derivatives of 2-hydroxy-2-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-2-phenylacetic acid of general structure 2 was accomplished by enzymatic hydrolysis of the correspondent esters. A screening with commercial hydrolases using the methyl ester of 2-hydroxy-2-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-2-phenylacetic acid (1a) showed that crude pig liver esterase (PLE) was the only preparation with catalytic activity. Low enantioselectivity was observed with substrates 1a–d, whereas PLE-catalysed hydrolysis of 1e proceeded with good enantioselectivity (E = 28), after optimization. Enhancement of the enantioselectivity was obtained by chemical re-esterification of enantiomerically enriched 2e, followed by sequential enzymatic hydrolysis with PLE. The preparation of optically-pure (S)-2e was validated on multi-milligram scale.

Abstract
Enantiomerically pure alcohols, as key intermediates, play an essential role in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical and chemical industries. Among the methods used for their production, biotechnological approaches are generally considered a green and effective alternative due to their mild reaction conditions and remarkable enantioselectivity. An increasing number of enzymatic strategies for the synthesis of these compounds has been developed over the years, among which seven primary methodologies can be distinguished as follows: (1) enantioselective water addition to alkenes, (2) enantioselective aldol addition, (3) enantioselective coupling of ketones with hydrogen cyanide, (4) asymmetric reduction of carbonyl compounds, (5) (dynamic) kinetic resolution of racemates, (6) enantioselective hydrolysis of epoxides, and (7) stereoselective hydroxylation of unactivated C-H bonds. Some recent reviews have examined these approaches separately; however, to date, no review has included all the above mentioned strategies. The aim of this mini-review is to provide an overview of all seven enzymatic strategies and draw conclusions on the effect of each approach.

Abstract
Non-lypolitic esterases are carboxylester hydrolases with preference for the hydrolysis of water-soluble esters bearing short-chain acyl residues. The potential of esterases as enantioselective biocatalysts has enlarged in the last few years due to the progresses achieved in different areas, such as screening methodologies, overproduction of recombinant esterases, structural information useful for understanding the rational behind enantioselectivity, and efficient methods in protein engineering. Contributions of these complementary know-hows to the development of new robust enantioselective esterases are critically discussed in this review.

Abstract
On the basis of a mu opioid receptor (MOR) homology model and the isosterism concept, three generations of 14-heteroaromatically substituted naltrexone derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as potential MOR-selective ligands. The first-generation ligands appeared to be MOR-selective, whereas the second and the third generation ones showed MOR/kappa opioid receptor (KOR) dual selectivity. Docking of ligands 2 (MOR selective) and 10 (MOR/KOR dual selective) to the three opioid receptor crystal structures revealed a nonconserved-residue-facilitated hydrogen-bonding network that could be responsible for their distinctive selectivity profiles. The MOR/KOR dual-selective ligand 10 showed no agonism and acted as a potent antagonist in the tail-flick assay. It also produced less severe opioid withdrawal symptoms than naloxone in morphine-dependent mice. In conclusion, ligand 10 may serve as a novel lead compound to develop MOR/KOR dual-selective ligands, which might possess unique therapeutic value for opioid addiction treatment.

Abstract
The enzymatic preparation of optically pure tertiary alcohols under sustainable conditions has received much attention. The conventional chemical synthesis of these valuable building blocks is still hampered by the use of harmful reagents such as heavy metal catalysts. Successful examples in biocatalysis used esterases, lipases, epoxide hydrolases, halohydrin dehalogenases, thiamine diphosphate-dependent enzymes, terpene cyclases, -acetylases, and -dehydratases. This mini-review provides an overview on recent developments in the discovery of new enzymes, their functional improvement by protein engineering, the design of chemoenzymatic routes leading to tertiary alcohols, and the discovery of entirely new biotransformations.

Abstract
Lipases (EC 3.1.1.3) play an important role in asymmetric biocatalysis. Tailoring these enzymes to novel, unnatural substrates is one of the primary challenges of protein engineering. We have used circular permutation, the intramolecular relocation of a protein's N- and C-termini, to explore the effects of altered active site accessibility and protein backbone flexibility on the catalytic performance of lipase B from Candida antarctica (CALB). Our combinatorial approach identified 63 unique functional protein permutants of CALB, and kinetic analysis of selected candidates indicated that a majority of enzyme variants either retained or surpassed wild-type CALB activity on a series of standard substrates. Beyond the potential benefits of these tailor-made lipases as new catalysts for unnatural substrates, our study validates circular permutation as a promising general method for lipase engineering.

Abstract
Among the various kinds of acyl donors, the 1-alkoxyvinyl esters have characteristic features, such as a high reactivity under nearly neutral conditions and the generation of neutral and volatile esters as single coproducts. Although their use in organic syntheses began in the middle of the 1950s, no significant progress has been seen. This is probably because the existing method of preparing alkoxyvinyl esters used toxic mercuric salts and was not totally applicable for those esters having functionalized acyl moieties. We have discovered that the use of a catalytic amount of the less toxic [RuCl2(p-cymene)]2 effectively accelerates the addition of carboxylic acids to ethoxyacetylene to give ethoxyvinyl esters bearing a variety of functionalized acyl groups in high yields. This discovery has opened a new avenue for developing new reactions and new synthetic methodologies based on the design and use of these acyl donors with suitable functional groups. Such examples include (i) the installation of hydrophilic acyl moieties on biologically active compounds, (ii) asymmetric Pummerer-type reactions, (iii) aromatic Pummerer-type reactions, (iv) the lipase-catalyzed desymmetrization of symmetrical 1,3-diols, and (v) lipase-catalyzed domino reactions. Future possibilities for these acyl donors are also discussed.

Abstract
Kinetic resolution of N-Boc-piperidine-2-ethanol (2), a case of remote stereocenter discrimination, was accomplished by sequential transesterification mediated by two enzymes, Lipase PS and porcine pancreatic lipase, showing opposite enantioselectivity. The gram-scale availability of the two enantiomeric N-Boc alcohols 2a (R) and 2c (S) enlarges their synthetic exploitation for the enantioselective preparation of piperidine alkaloids. As an example, the convenient three-step synthesis of both the enantiomers of sedamine and allosedamine is described.
