Enoate reductases belonging to the Old Yellow Enzyme (OYE) family were employed to develop a biocatalysed approach to methyl (S)-2-bromobutanoate, a key intermediate for the introduction of a particular stereogenic unit into the molecular skeleton of a certain class of chiral drugs. Methyl (Z)-2-bromocrotonate afforded, respectively, (S)-2-bromobutanoic acid (ee = 97%) and methyl (S)-2-bromobutanoate (ee = 97%) by baker's yeast fermentation and by OYE1-3 biotransformations. The bioreductions of other methyl 2-haloalkenoates were also considered. It was observed that the (Z)- and (E)-diastereoisomers of α-bromo unsaturated esters afforded the same enantiomer of the corresponding reduced product.

(Z)-Alkyl α-Cl-α,β-unsaturated esters are prepared in excellent yields by stereoselective dehydrobromination of alkyl α-Br-α-Cl-carboxylates with LiCl-Li2CO3 in dimethylformamide.
