毕赤酵母不对称合成阿托伐他汀中间体

Asymmetric synthesis of atorvastatin intermediate by Pichia pastoris X-33

摘要:

阿托伐他汀可通过抑制HMG-CoA还原酶与底物的结合来抑制胆固醇的合成，而 (R)-3-羟基-5-邻苯二甲酰亚胺基戊酸乙酯是阿托伐他汀合成的重要中间体。通过对实验室保藏菌种进行筛选，得到一株巴氏毕赤酵母X-33可将5-邻苯二甲酰亚胺-3-氧代戊酸乙酯还原为 (R)-3-羟基-5-邻苯二甲酰亚胺基戊酸乙酯。在磷酸盐缓冲液体系中考察了初始底物浓度、反应时间、辅助底物、葡萄糖添加量、pH、温度等因素对产物收率和对映体选择性的影响，获得了较佳的反应条件。选择底物投料量为7 g/L时，当菌体浓度120 g/L，葡萄

Abstract:

Ethyl (R)-3-hydroxy-5-(1,3-dioxoisoindolin-2-yl)-pentanoate is a potential intermediate for the synthesis of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor (atorvastatin) that can lower the cholesterol level in human blood. In this study, in order to synthesize ethyl (R)-3-hydroxy-5-(1,3-dioxoisoindolin-2-yl)-pentanoate by bioreduction, the yeast strains in our lab were screened. Ethyl (R)-3-hydroxy-5-(1,3-dioxoisoindolin-2-yl)-pentanoate was found to be produced efficiently from ethyl 5-(1,3-dioxoisoindolin-2-yl)-3-oxopentanoate by Pichia pastoris X-33. The effects of initial substrate concentration, reaction time, co-substrate, amount of yeast cells, pH, as well as the temperature on the yield and enantiomeric excesses (e.e. value) of product were examined in mono-phase system. The optimal reaction conditions are as fallows: substrate concentration 7 g/L, cell concentration 120 g/L, glucose concentration 120 g/L, pH 6.5, temperature 35 °C, reaction time 12 h, and the yield 93.12% with the high e.e. value of 98.55%.
