A novel and efficient reduction of various prochiral ketones such as acetopehones, alpha-azido aryl ketones, beta-ketoesters, and aliphatic acyclic and cyclic ketones to the corresponding optically acive secondary alcohols with moderate to excellent chemical yield was achieved by using Daucus carota, root plant cells under extremely mild and environmentally benign conditions in aqueous medium, has been described. Many of these optically active alcohols are the potential chiral building blocks for the synthesis of pharmaceutically important molecules and asymmetric chiral ligands. Hence, this biocatalytic approach is found to be the most suitable for the preparation of a wide range of chiral alcohols and gave inspiration for the development of a new biotechnological process.
With the goal of developing a modular approach leading to different indoline alkaloid natural-product-like tricyclic derivatives having an unsaturated lactam (see compounds 13, 14, and 16), an aminoindoline-based bicyclic scaffold 10 was obtained from 9. The selective deprotection of the indoline NTeoc or benzylic NHAlloc in compound 10, followed by N-acryloylation and then subjection to a ring-closing metathesis reaction, successfully led to obtaining two different architectures (13/14 and 16) having an unsaturated lactam functionality. This modular solution-phase methodology was then developed on solid phase. To achieve this objective, the aminoindoline bicyclic scaffold having an additional hydroxyl group could be immobilized onto the solid support using alkylsilyl linker-based polystyrene macrobeads, giving 18. By applying a ring-closing metathesis approach, 20 (tricyclic derivative with seven-membered-ring unsaturated lactam) and 23 (tricyclic derivative with eight-membered-ring unsaturated lactam) were then obtained from 18 in a number of steps.
