Tryptophan
(Trp) derivatives constitute important building blocks
found in many natural products, peptides, and drugs. Accordingly,
there is a high demand for suitable biocatalytic pathways providing
selective derivatization of Trp like C–H functionalization
or Cα-oxidation. The specific l-amino acid
oxidase RebO from the actinomycete L. aerocolonigenes was harnessed for chemoenzymatic oxidation of substituted Trp derivatives.
An array of potential substrates was tested, and several Trp derivatives
are being accepted with reasonable turnover. The highest selectivity
was observed for 7-halotryptophan being converted about 35-fold faster
than nonsubstituted Trp. This selectivity is also useful for establishing
a colorimetric halogenase high-throughput assay. RebO was also employed
in dynamic stereoinversion in the presence of an ammonia–borane
complex to provide access to non-native d-configured Trp
analogues. Optimized reaction conditions yielded ∼70% d-amino acid with >98% ee for halotryptophans
on
an analytical scale. Dynamic stereoinversion preceded by enzymatic
halogenation in a sequential one-pot reaction cascade provided d-configured 5- or 7-bromotryptophan with improved conversion
of approximately 90%, >92% ee, and good isolated
yields.
