Courier Press, Leamington Spa, England. EP 0 122 151 B1 Description This invention relates to primary or secondary alcohol derivatives of phospholipids and a process for production thereof by an enzymatic technique. 5 The process of this invention can produce a broad range of primary or secondary alcohol derivatives of phospholipids including those primary or secondary alcohol derivatives of phospholipids which have heretofore been considered impossible of production by an enzymatic technique. It has only been known that secondary alcohol derivatives of phospholipids in particular cannot be formed by the enzymatic technique. 10 Particularly, this invention relates to a process for producing a primary or secondary alcohol derivative of a phospholipid, which comprises reacting a phospholipid with a primary or secondary alcohol in the presence of phospholipase DM having an optimum temperature of 60 to 70°C and an optimum pH of about 7 which differs from the known cabbage-derived phospholipase D (optimum temperature not more than 40°C, optimum pH 5.4—5.6) used heretofore in the enzymatic technique; and to the primary or secondary 15 alcohol derivative of the phospholipid obtained by the above process. In the present application, the term "primary or secondary alcohol derivative of a phospholipid" denotes a new phospholipid different from the starting phospholipid, which is formed by hydrolyzing the ester linkage between the phosphoric acid structural moiety of the starting phospholipid and its alcohol structural moiety under the action of phospholipase DM, and simultaneously transferring the phosphatidic 20 acid structural moiety to the primary or secondary alcohol used in the reaction. More specifically, this invention pertains to a process for producing a primary or secondary alcohol derivative of a phospholipid represented by the following formula (I) 0 » 25 A-O-P-O-R (I) I OH wherein A and R are as defined below, which comprises reacting a phospholipid represented by the 30 following formula (II) 0 A-O-P-O-B (II) I 35 OH wherein A is a moiety represented by the following formula (i) CH2~R1 40 CH-Rj (i) CH2- or the following formula (ii) 45 ?VR1 CH- (ii) CH2-R2 50 in which R, and R2 both represent — O— COR-,, or — 0— R12, or R, and R2 in formula (i) together represent 55 2'n in which n represents a number of from 11 to 19, and Rn and R12 are identical or different and each 60 represents a saturated or unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbon group having 7 to 21 carbon atoms, and B represents the group -fCH2)2N+(CH3)3, -fCH2)2NH2, — CH2CH(NH2)COOH, — CH2CH2NH(CH3), — CH2CH2N(CH3)2, 65 — CH2CHOHCH2OH or -f CH2)mH 2 :P 0 122 151 B1 in which m represents a number of from 1 to 5, with a primary or secondary alcohol seiectea Trom tne group consisting of (1) primary alcohols containing a residue R of a saturated or unsaturated aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbon having 6 to 26 carbon atoms (excepting hexanoi), said hydrocarbon residue being optionally and 5 substituted by a substituent selected from the class consisting of halogen, amino, acetyl, carboxyl hydroxyl, or a residue R of said aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbon having in the molecule a linkage selected from ether, ester and amide linkages, (2) primary alcohols having a residue R of a pregnane-type steroidal compound, (3) primary alcohols having a residue R of a heterocyclic compound selected from the group consisting w of galactono-gamma-lactone, N-(2-hydroxyethyl)phthalimide, 2-(3-indole)ethanol, 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)- pyridine, pyridoxine, N-(2-hydroxyethyl)morpholine, 5-hydroxymethylcytosine, cytidine, uridine, arabinocytidine, thiamine, 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine, adenosine, guanosine and cyclocytidine, and (4) secondary alcohols having a C3— C10 linear or branched alkyl group R which may be substituted by a substituent selected from the class consisting of halogen, amino, acetyl, hydroxyl, mono- or di-alkylamino R which be r5 of not more than 3 carbon atoms and phenyl, or a C4— C8 alicyclic hydrocarbon group may substituted by said substituent, in the presence of phospholipase DM produced by Nocardiopsis or Actinomadura and having the ability to catalyse a transfer reaction between a phospholipid and a primary or secondary alcohol; and the primary or secondary alcohol derivative of phospholipid so obtained. of the choline ?0 It has previously been known that phospholipase D catalyzes a reaction hydrolyzing base-phosphoric ester of phosphatidyl choline, a phospholipid, to yield a free base and phosphatide acid [M. Kates: Can. J. Biochem. Physiol., 32, 571 (1954)]. It was reported that when a phospholipid such as lecithin is reacted with ethanol in the presence of phospholipase D, the ester linkage between the phosphatidic acid structural moiety of the phospholipid action of the to transfer ,5 and its alcohol structural moiety is hydrolyzed and simultaneously by the enzyme the phosphatidyl group, phosphatidyl ethanol is formed [R. M. C. Dawson: Biochem. J., 102, 205 (1967), and S. F. Yang: J. Biol. Chem., 242, 477 (1967)]. Much research work has been undertaken in this field since the action of phospholipase D to transfer the phosphatidyl group as mentioned above became known. For example, British Patent No. 1,581,810 reaction 30 (corresponding to West German OLS No. 2717547) discloses a primary alcohol transferring between a specified phospholipid represented by the general formula in the above patent document and a primary alcohol having a linear or branched alkyl group with up to 5 carbon atoms which may be substituted by hydroxyl, halogen, amino or another substituent, utilizing the enzymatic action of phospholipase D derived from cabbage. The cited patent document states that this reaction takes place and with alcohol J5 only with primary alcohols containing not more than 5 carbon atoms, a primary having more than 5 carbon atoms, the main product of the reaction is the corresponding phosphatidic acid. The British Patent also describes that the selection of the alcohol component is not particularly restricted so long as it is a primary alcohol meeting the above requirement. S. Kovatchev and H. Eibl who are the inventors of the above-cited British Patent reported in Adv. Exp. 40 Med. Biol., Vol. 101, 221 (1978) that in regard to the primary alcohol transferring reaction under the enzymatic action of phospholipase D, no transfer reaction was observed with alkanols having 7 to 10 carbon atoms, but a transfer reaction to an extent of 20% occurred with hexanoi (C6). On the other hand, M. M. Rokhimov reported in Uzb. Biol. Zh., vol. 3, 6—9 (1979) that no transfer reaction occurred with alcohols having at least 5 carbon atoms, for example hexanoi (C6). 45 Furthermore, R. M. C. Dawson reported that when lecithin as a phospholipid and 2-propanol as a secondary alcohol were reacted in the presence of the known cabbage-derived phospholipase D, the transfer of the phosphatidyl group of the lecithin base to the secondary alcohol did not take place [Biochem., J., vol. 102, 205 (1967)]. As stated above, it has been common technical knowledge that a transfer reaction between a alcohol is so phospholipid and an alcohol with the conventional phospholipase D takes place only when the a primary alcohol, particularly a primary alcohol having a relatively small number of carbon atoms, and it does not occur at all with secondary alcohols. The present inventors already discovered the existence of microorganisms having the ability to produce phospholipase D which differ from the known cabbage-derived phospholipase D in optimum 161076/1981 55 temperature, optimum pH, etc., and disclosed them in Japanese Patent Application No. (Laid- Open Patent Publication No. 63388/1983 laid open on April 15, 1983), and Japanese Patent Application No. 163475/1981 (Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 67183/1983 laid open on April 21, 1983).

  • Transcription 12.01.12
    Lecture 2B • 01/12/12 We covered three different reactions for converting alcohols into leaving groups. One was to turn an alcohol into an alkyl chloride, that was using thionyl chloride. Second reaction was using tosyl chloride; the primary difference between those two reactions is one of stereochemistry. An inversion of stereochemistry does occur if you use thionyl chloride, because it does affect the carbon-oxygen bond, but because forming a tosylate does not touch the carbon-oxygen bond, only the oxygen- hydrogen bond, there’s no change in stereochemistry there. We then saw phosphorus tribromide that reacts very similarly to the thionyl chloride; you get an alkyl bromide instead, but it also has inversion of configuration. The last reaction is not a new mechanism, it is just an Sn2 reaction, it’s called the Finkelstein reaction. Really this works, in a sense, off of Le Châtelier’s principle. In solution, in theory, sodium iodide can displace bromide, but sodium bromide can displace iodide, so you can have an Sn2 reaction that goes back and forth and back and forth and back and forth. Except, sodium iodide is somewhat soluble in acetone, while sodium chloride and sodium bromide are not. So, in fact, one of the things that we get out of this as a by-product is sodium bromide, which, again, is not soluble in acetone and therefore precipitates out and is no longer part of the reaction mixture, so there’s no reverse reaction possible. Because of this solubility trick, it allows this reaction to be pulled forward, which means you can get the alkyl iodide.

Badawi Department of Chemistry, King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals, Dhahran 31261, Saudi Arabia Reprint requests to Wolfgang Forner.¨ E-mail: [email protected] Z. Naturforsch. 2013, 68b, 841 – 851 / DOI: 10.5560/ZNB.2013-3003 Received February 9, 2013 We have calculated the vibrational spectra of isoamyl alcohol and of tert-amyl alcohol using Den- sity Functional Theory (DFT) with the Becke-3 Lee Yang Parr (B3LYP) functional and a 6-311+G** atomic basis set. The energies of the conformers were also calculated with ab initio Perturbation Theory of second (MP2) and fourth order restricted to single, double and quadruple excitations (MP4 SDQ) with the same basis set. We found rather complicated equilibria of four conformations in each case, counting only those with appreciable abundancies. PED data were compared with GAUSSVIEW animations. The calculated wavenumbers agree rather well with the experimental ones when the gauche-trans conformer is assumed as the most important one for isoamyl alcohol, and the gauche- gauche one for tert-amyl alcohol. However, some of the experimental bands had to be assigned also to other conformers, indicating their presence in the equilibrium mixture. Due to sterical reasons both the CO and the OH bonds appear to be weaker in the tertiary alcohol, considering the wavenumbers of the CO and OH bond stretching vibrations. The bond lengths point into the same direction, however, the OH bond in the tertiary alcohol is only slightly longer than that in the primary alcohol.

  • Reactions of Alcohols
    Reactions of Alcohols Alcohols are versatile organic compounds since they undergo a wide variety of transformations – the majority of which are either oxidation or reduction type reactions. Normally: Oxidation is a loss of electrons; Reduction is a gain of electrons. But in organic terms: Oxidation: loss of H2; addition of O or O2; addition of X2 (halogens). Reduction: - addition of H2 or H ; loss of O or O2; loss of X2. Neither an oxidation nor reduction: Addition or loss of H+, H2O, HX. Ch11 Reacns of Alcohols (landscape).docx Page 1 Oxidation of Alcohols Primary and secondary alcohols are easily oxidized by a variety of reagents. Secondary Alcohols The most common reagent used for oxidation of secondary alcohols to ketones is chromic acid, H2CrO4. Chromic acid is produced in situ by reaction of sodium dichromate, sulfuric acid and water. Na2Cr2O7 + H2O + 2H2SO4 2 H2CrO4 + 2 NaHSO4 Ch11 Reacns of Alcohols (landscape).docx Page 2 Mechanism of oxidation The alcohol and chromic acid produce a chromate ester, which then reductively eliminates the Cr species. The Cr is reduced (VI IV), the alcohol is oxidized. Oxidation of Primary Alcohols Primary alcohols are easily oxidized just like secondary alcohols, and the INITIAL product of oxidation is an aldehyde. Ch11 Reacns of Alcohols (landscape).docx Page 3 However, the aldehyde can also be easily oxidized to an acid, and this ‘over-oxidation’ is a practical problem. E.g. A common reagent that selectively oxidizes a primary alcohol to an aldehyde (and no further) is pyridinium chlorochromate, PCC. N: CrO3, HCl (PCC) E.g. Tertiary Alcohols These are resistant to oxidation because they have no hydrogen atoms attached to the oxygen bearing carbon (carbinol carbon).

Bases such as KOH or NaOH are not strong enough. NaH, KH or Na (s) , K (s) are usually used. 104 In the case of phenols, the pKa of the hydroxyl group is around 10 and weaker bases can be used (NaOH, KOH, etc…) 105 Synthesis of Alcohols (Review) § Hydration (a) Direct (8.4) 106 Mechanism of Direct Hydration of Alkenes 107 (b) Indirect (4.8) (1) Oxymercuration/Demercuration (8.5) (2) Hydroboration/Oxidation (8.7) 108 § Hydroxylation (8.14) 109 New Synthesis of Alcohols (Nu attack on carbonyl compounds) An excellent method to make alcohols.
