A new keto reductase (ArQR), identified from Agrobacterium radiobacter ECU2556, can efficiently reduce 3-quinuclidinone in excellent enantioselectivity and high space-time yield for the synthesis of (R)-3-quinuclidinol, a chiral building block of many antimuscarinic agents. This is the first time that
Selective Cleavage of ?-Keto and Vinylogous ?-Keto Esters by 3-Quinuclidinol.
Journal of medicinal chemistry, 34(10), 2989-2993 (1991-10-01)
Seven analogues of 3-quinuclidinyl benzilate (QNB) in which one phenyl ring was replaced by an alkoxyalkyl moiety were synthesized and their affinities for the muscarinic cholinergic receptor determined. An oxygen in the beta-position of the moiety was not well-tolerated. By
