We present a one-pot cascade for the synthesis of phenylpropanolamines (PPAs) in high optical purities (er and dr up to >99.5 %) and analytical yields (up to 95 %) by using 1-phenylpropane-1,2-diols as key intermediates. This bioamination entails the combination of an alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), an ω-transaminase (ωTA) and an alanine dehydrogenase to create a redox-neutral network, which harnesses the exquisite and complementary regio- and stereo-selectivities of the selected ADHs and ωTAs. The requisite 1-phenylpropane-1,2-diol intermediates were obtained from trans- or cis-β-methylstyrene by combining a styrene monooxygenase with epoxide hydrolases. Furthermore, in selected cases, the envisioned cascade enabled to obtain the structural isomer (1S,2R)-1-amino-1-phenylpropan-2-ol in high optical purity (er and dr >99.5 %). This is the first report on an enzymatic method that enables to obtain all of the four possible PPA stereoisomers in great enantio- and diastereo-selectivity.
Examining the origin of selectivity in the reaction of racemic alcohols with chiral N-phosphoryl oxazolidinones

A range of known and novel N-phosphoryl oxazolidinones and imidazolidinones were prepared and screened in the kinetic resolution of a range of racemic magnesium chloroalkoxides. Models are proposed to account for the enantioselectivity achieved based on a combination of chiral relay effects, generation of transient stereochemistry and the structure of the intermediate magnesium alkoxide.
Platinum-Catalyzed Intramolecular Hydrosilation of Allylamines: Formation of 1-Aza-2-silacyclobutanes and Application to Stereoselective Synthesis of 2-Amino Alcohols

N,N-Bis(dimethylsilyl)allylamines undergo intramolecular hydrosilation in the presence of Pt2O>2 (0.2 mol percent) to form four-membered cyclic compounds, 1-aza-2-silacyclobutane derivatives, which can be transformed into 2-amino alcohols by oxidation with 30percent H2O2 in the presence of KF and KHCO3.
