Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a non-heme iron enzyme mutant, a truncate and application thereof in synthesizing chiral primary amine compounds, and belongs to the field of enzyme engineering. Background Art

[0002] Chiral primary amines are widely present in biologically active molecules and are widely used in the synthesis of natural products, drug molecules and agrochemicals. They are important structures of common drug molecule intermediates. Chiral primary amines usually contain an amino group (NH 2 ) and a chiral center, which can be a carbon atom, a nitrogen atom or other types of atoms, usually connected to different substituents. Among them, most of the important compounds related to biological functions are heterocyclic compounds, such as nucleic acids, vitamins, antibiotics, hormones, pigments and alkaloids. Among the heterocyclic compounds containing both sulfur and nitrogen, the thiazole skeleton is one of the important characteristic structures for drug development. For example, 2-aminothiazoline is often found in choline receptor modulators, nitric oxide synthase inhibitors and antibacterial compounds ( Organic letters , 2010, 12 , 5526-5529).

[0003] At present, the synthesis of 2-aminothiazoline is mainly through the conversion of 2-hydroxyethylthiourea, but the existing methods mostly use organic catalytic synthesis routes, which have obvious shortcomings. For example, the dehydration cyclization of 2-hydroxyethylthiourea is difficult to be compatible with substrates that are unstable to acid or prone to acid-catalyzed racemization under strong acid catalysis ( Journal of Fluorine Chemistry , 2005, 126 , 297-300). Although the conditions of the Mitsunobu reaction are relatively mild, a mixed product of 2-aminoimidazoline and 1,2-ethylenethiourea is often obtained ( Bioorganic&Medicinal Chemistry Letters , 2005, 15 , 3849-3852). If sulfonyl chloride is used as an activating agent, 2-aminooxazoline ( Tetrahedron , 2004, 60 , 9883-9888).

[0004] Invention patent CN202010771036.5 discloses that the target product can be obtained by condensation / oxidation coupling reaction in an organic solvent or water in an oxygen atmosphere, using ketone and thiourea or thiourea derivatives as raw materials, and under the co-catalysis of activated carbon or metal salts. Invention patent CN202110616891.3 adopts an electrochemical synthesis method, using ketone and thiourea as raw materials, dimethyl sulfoxide and water as solvents, ammonium halide or alkali metal halide as both electrolyte and electrocatalyst, and in the presence of additives, the reaction temperature is 50-90°C to obtain 2-aminothiazole compounds. Although the above technical solutions realize the one-step construction of the thiazole ring, none of them can obtain chiral 2-aminothiazole compounds, and the reaction system used seriously pollutes the environment.

[0005] The difunctionalization of olefins has good atom and step economy and can introduce new functional groups on both sides of the carbon-carbon double bond. Morandi's group has developed a series of iron-catalyzed aminofunctionalization reactions of olefins to obtain halogen ( Science , 2018, 362 , 434-439), hydroxyl ( Angewandte Chemie International Edition ,2016, 55 , 2248-2251) and azide ( Journal of the American Chemical Society , 2020, 142 ,21548-21555) and other functional group-substituted primary amine products. This reaction has gradually become a powerful tool for increasing the complexity of molecules in organic synthesis, showing great potential for industrial application.

[0006] Enzyme-catalyzed reactions are characterized by high efficiency, high selectivity, and environmental friendliness, and have been widely used in the fields of chemical engineering, energy, and materials. Based on the relevant research on transition metal catalysis, Arnold's research group modified a heat-resistant iron-containing enzyme, cytochrome C ( Angewandte Chemie International Edition , 2019, 58 , 3138-3142), which can directly convert olefins into unprotected 2-amino-1-ols with high enantioselectivity using hydroxylamine derivatives as nitrogen sources under anaerobic conditions. This method supplements the high enantioselectivity transformation pathways lacking in traditional chemical synthesis, but this method only provides primary aminated products substituted with ortho-hydroxyl groups, and the scope of application of enzyme-catalyzed amino functionalization of olefins has not been fully explored. In addition, this method uses the heme in the active center of the enzyme to form a stable coordination structure, has strong substrate specificity, and can usually only catalyze specific reactions, thus limiting the applicability of this type of enzyme.

[0007] In summary, the present invention intends to develop an engineered enzyme that can catalyze the amino functionalization reaction of olefins, achieve a more economical and green asymmetric synthesis of chiral primary amine compounds, and further develop its industrial applicability. Summary of the invention

[0008] Non-heme iron enzymes mainly include hydroxylases and halogenases. Their natural catalytic mechanism is as follows: the iron in the active center of this type of enzyme is generally coordinated with two histidines and one glutamic acid or aspartic acid. If it is a halogenase, this position is coordinated by water. When α-KG, halogen ions and substrates are added, α-KG and halogen ions will replace water molecules and coordinate with iron. In the presence of oxygen, peroxyl radicals can be formed, and then a molecule of CO is removed. 2 , obtaining a highly reactive high-valent iron-oxygen intermediate. Subsequently, the hydroxylation reaction is achieved by grabbing the substrate hydrogen atom and rebounding the hydroxyl radical, or the halogenation reaction is achieved by capturing the halogen radical. Compared with the heme iron enzyme, the non-heme iron-containing enzyme has multiple open iron coordination sites and highly flexible and adjustable reactivity, and is expected to become a strong candidate for expanding the diversity of amino functionalization reactions of olefins.
