Application

  • The first example of a diastereoselective thio-Ugi reaction: a new synthetic approach to chiral imidazole derivatives.: This research presents a novel diastereoselective thio-Ugi reaction, enabling the synthesis of chiral imidazole derivatives, which are essential in asymmetric synthesis and pharmaceutical intermediates (Gulevich et al., 2007).
  • Synthesis and serotonin receptor affinities of a series of enantiomers of alpha-methyltryptamines: evidence for the binding conformation of tryptamines at serotonin 5-HT1B receptors.: This study investigates the synthesis and serotonin receptor affinities of alpha-methyltryptamine enantiomers, contributing to the understanding of chiral compounds in medicinal chemistry (Nichols et al., 1988).

For biocatalytic production of pharmaceutically important chiral amines the ω-transaminase enzymes have proven useful. Engineering of these enzymes has to some extent been accomplished by rational design, but mostly by directed evolution. By use of a homology model a key
