A gene encoding halohydrin dehalogenase from an alphaproteobacterium (AbHHDH) was identified, cloned and over-expressed in Escherichia coli. AbHHDH was able to catalyze the stereoselective dehalogenation of prochiral and racemic halohydrins. It showed the highest enantioselectivity in the dehalogenation of 20?mM (R,S)-2-bromo-1-phenylethanol, which yielded (S)-2-bromo-1-phenylethanol with 99% ee and 34.5% yield. Moreover, AbHHDH catalyzed the azidolysis of epoxides with low to moderate (S)-enantioselectivity. The highest enantioselectivity (E = 18.6) was observed when (R,S)-benzyl glycidyl ether was used as the substrate. A sequential kinetic resolution catalyzed by HHDH was employed for the synthesis of chiral 1-chloro-3-phenoxy-2-propanol. We prepared enantiopure (S)-isomer with a high enantiopurity of ee > 99% and a yield of 30.7% (E-value: 21.3) by kinetic resolution of 20?mM substrate. The (S)-isomer with 99% ee readily obtained from 40 to 150?mM (R,S)-1-chloro-3-phenoxy-2-propanol. Taken together, the results of this study demonstrate the applicability of this HHDH for the production of optically active compounds. [Figure not available: see fulltext.].

Racemic 3-(2-ethylphenoxy)propane-1,2-diol 2 has been effectively resolved into (S)- and (R)-enantiomers by a preferential crystallization procedure. Non-racemic diols 2, obtained via a Mitsunobu reaction, have been converted into the non-racemic 1,2-epox
