Abstract
The construction of vinyl selenone on a furanoside led to a highly reactive synthetic intermediate methyl-α-D-2-selenonyl pent-2-enofuranoside composed of a masked aldehyde, an electron-deficient double bond along with an excellent leaving group. This new Michael acceptor on reactions with different nucleophiles afforded bicyclic azasugars, cyclopropanated carbohydrate, dihydrofuran- and dihydroisoxazole- substituted furanosides, and isonucleosides in moderate to good yields. Hydrolysis of the hemiacetal linkage of some of these modified carbohydrates afforded enantiopure aziridines, nitrocyclopropane, and dihydrofuran.

Abstract
The hydration and hydrolysis of nitriles are valuable synthetic methods used to prepare carboxamides and carboxylic acids. However, chemical hydration and hydrolysis of nitriles involve harsh reaction conditions, have low selectivity, and generate large amounts of waste. Therefore, researchers have confined the scope of these reactions to simple nitrile substrates. However, biological transformations of nitriles are highly efficient, chemoselective, and environmentally benign, which has led synthetic organic chemists and biotechologists to study these reactions in detail over the last two decades. In nature, biological systems degrade nitriles via two distinct pathways: nitrilases catalyze the direct hydrolysis of nitriles to afford carboxylic acids with release of ammonia, and nitrile hydratases catalyze the conversion of nitriles into carboxamides, which then furnish carboxylic acids via hydrolysis in the presence of amidases. Researchers have subsequently developed biocatalytic methods into useful industrial processes for the manufacture of commodity chemicals, including acrylamide. Since the late 1990s, research by my group and others has led to enormous progress in the understanding and application of enantioselective biotransformations of nitriles in organic synthesis. In this Account, I summarize the important advances in enantioselective biotransformations of nitriles and amides, with a primary focus on research from my laboratory. I describe microbial whole-cell-catalyzed kinetic resolution of various functionalized nitriles, amino- and hydroxynitriles, and nitriles that contain small rings and the desymmetrization of prochiral and meso dinitriles and diamides. I also demonstrate how we can apply the biocatalytic protocol to synthesize natural products and bioactive compounds. These nitrile biotransformations offer an attractive and unique protocol for the enantioselective synthesis of polyfunctionalized organic compounds that are not readily obtainable by other methods. Nitrile substrates are readily available, and the mild reaction conditions are specific toward cyano and amido functional groups without interfering with other reactive functional groups. I anticipate that further advances in this field will lead to new and engineered nitrile-hydrolyzing enzymes or catalytic systems with improved activity and altered selectivity. These advances will broaden the scope of these transformations and their applications in organic synthesis.

Abstract
A convenient and stereoselective approach toward cis- and trans-1-alkyl-2-(methyl/phenyl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)aziridines was developed starting from the corresponding α,α,α-trifluoroketones via imination, α-chlorination, and hydride-induced ring closure. The reactivity of these newly synthesized nonactivated α-CF3-aziridines was evaluated by applying N-protonation or N-alkylation to effect regio- and stereospecific aziridine ring opening by oxygen, halogen, sulfur, and nitrogen nucleophiles. Furthermore, nonactivated α-CF3-aziridines were easily transformed into their activated analogues by replacing the N-benzyl protecting group with a N-tosyl group, rendering these α-CF3-aziridines much more susceptible to nucleophilic ring opening.

Abstract
Treatment of 1-arylmethyl-2-(2-cyanoethyl)aziridines with a nitrile hydratase afforded the corresponding 2-(2-carbamoylethyl)aziridines, which underwent rearrangement into 5-hydroxypiperidin-2-ones upon heating under microwave irradiation. In addition, treatment of 2-(2-cyanoethyl)aziridines with a nitrilase selectively afforded 5-hydroxypiperidin-2-ones in good yields. On the other hand, chemical hydrolysis of 2-(2-cyanoethyl)aziridines using KOH in EtOH/H(2)O furnished the corresponding potassium 3-(aziridin-2-yl)propanoates, which, upon acidification with acetic acid, smoothly rearranged into 4-(aminomethyl)butyrolactones.

Abstract
Catalyzed by Rhodococcus erythropolis AJ270, a nitrile hydratase and amidase containing microbial whole cell catalyst, a number of racemic 1-arylmethyl- and 1-allyl-4-oxoazetidine-2-carbonitriles and carboxamides underwent efficient transformations under very mild conditions to produce enantiopure functionalized S-amide and R-acid products in excellent yields. While the nitrile hydratase showed good enzyme activity but virtually no enantioselectivity, the amidase displayed high R-enantioselectivity against almost all amide substrates tested. The synthetic applications of the resulting functionalized chiral β-lactam derivatives were demonstrated by the facile preparation of β-lactam-fused heterocyclic compounds.

Abstract
A new method for the synthesis of novel 1,4-benzodiazepine derivatives has been established from a one-pot reaction of methyl 1-arylaziridine-2-carboxylates with N-[2-bromomethyl(aryl)]trifluoroacetamides. The reaction proceeds through the N-benzylation and highly regioselective ring-opening reaction of aziridine by bromide anion followed by Et3N-mediated intramolecular nucleophilic displacement of the bromide by the amide nitrogen. The easy availability of starting materials, simple and convenient synthetic procedure, and formation of functionalized 1,4-benzodiazepine scaffold ready for further chemical manipulations render this strategy useful in synthetic and medicinal chemistry.
