Various bromophenylalkenes were reductively photodebrominated by using 1,3-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1H-benzo-[d]imidazoline (DMBI) and 9,10-dicyanoanthracene. With deuterated DMBI analogs (the most effective was DMBI-d11), satisfactory to excellent isotopic yields were obtained. DMBI-d11 could also be regenerated from the reaction mixtures with a recovery rate of up to 50%. The combination of the photodebromination reaction with conventional methods for bromoalkene synthesis enables sequential monodeuteration of a double bond without the necessity of a metal catalyst.

The degree of C=C bond activation in the asymmetric bioreduction of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic esters by ene-reductases was studied, and general recommendations to render these "borderline-substrates" more reactive towards enzymatic reduction are proposed. The concept of "supported substrate activation" was developed. In general, an additional α-halogenated substituent proved to be beneficial for enzymatic activity, whereas β-alkyl or β-aryl substituents were detrimental for the reactivity of nonhalogenated substrates, and α-cyano groups showed little effect. The alcohol moiety of the ester functionality was found to have a strong influence on the reaction rate. Overall, activities were determined by both steric and electronic effects. Biotransformation: The asymmetric bioreduction of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic esters by ene-reductases could be tuned by varying the degree of C=C bond activation (see scheme). An additional α-halogenated substituent proved to be beneficial for enzymatic activity, whereas β-alkyl or β-aryl substituents were detrimental for the reactivity of nonhalogenated substrates.

Biocatalyzed enantioselective reduction of activated C=C bonds: Synthesis of enantiomerically enriched α-halo-β-arylpropionic acids
Brenna, Elisabetta,Gatti, Francesco G.,Manfredi, Alessia,Monti, Daniela,Parmeggiani, Fabio
experimental part, p. 4015 - 4022 (2011/09/15)
The enantioselective biocatalyzed reduction of the C=C bond of some (Z)-methyl α-halo-β-arylacrylates was investigated. The reaction was performed by baker's yeast fermentation and Old Yellow Enzymes 1-3 mediated biotransformations. The final products wer
