General description

4-(Trimethylsilyl)-3-butyn-2-one is a ketone. Its asymmetric bioreduction to enantiopure {(S)-TMSBOL in various hydrophilic ionic liquid (ILs) solvent systems has been reported.

Application

4-(Trimethylsilyl)-3-butyn-2-one (TMSB) has been used to investigate its asymmetric bioreduction to (S)-4-(trimethylsilyl)-3-butyn-2-ol {(S)-TMSBOL} by employing biocompatible water-immiscible ionic liquids (ILs). TMSB may be used for the synthesis of entecavir (BMS-200475).

Entecavir (BMS-200475) was synthesized from 4-trimethylsilyl-3-butyn-2-one and acrolein. The key features of its preparation are: (i) a stereoselective boron-aldol reaction to afford the acyclic carbon skeleton of the methylenecylopentane moiety; (ii) its cyclization by a Cp2TiCl-catalyzed intramolecular radical addition of

Whole cells are usually employed for biocatalytic reduction reactions to ensure efficient coenzyme regeneration and to avoid problems with enzyme purification and stability. The efficiency of whole cell-catalyzed bioreduction is frequently restricted by pronounced toxicity of substrate and/or product to

Hydrophilic ionic liquids (ILs) were employed as green solvents to construct an IL-containing co-solvent system for improving the asymmetric reduction of 4-(trimethylsilyl)-3-butyn-2-one by immobilized Candida parapsilosis cells. Among 14 hydrophilic ILs examined, 1-(2'-hydroxyl)ethyl-3-methylimidazolium nitrate (C(2)OHMIM·NO(3)) was considered as the most
