VERFAHREN ZUR HERSTELLUNG VON AMINOALKOHOLEN UND DERIVATEN DAVON

摘要

Microorganisms (A), or their enzymatic extracts, able to utilise cyclopentene derivatives (VII) as sole carbon (or carbon and nitrogen) source are new. R1 = 1-4C alkyl or alkoxy, or aryl or aryloxy. Also new are (1) N-acetylamino-alcohol hydrolases (NAAH) from (A) able to hydrolyse (VII), and their functionally equivalent variants or mutants; (2) production of (1R,4S) and/or (1S,4R)-1-amino-4-hydroxymethyl-2-cyclopentene (II), or their derivatives N-substituted by COR1, by reacting (VII) with at least one of (A), its enzymatic extract, NAAH and penicillin G acylase.
