Thesis
Evolved P450 mutants as general oxidation catalysts for target synthesis via C–H activation
- Abstract:
-
This thesis describes synthetic studies towards three natural product precursors: the tricyclic core of the abietane diterpenoids, a bicyclic lactone intermediate on Danishefsky’s route towards eleutherobin, and the hydrocarbon core of Taxol®. These syntheses were followed by an investigation into biocatalytic oxidation with particular focus on kinetic resolution.
Chapter 1 provides an introduction to contemporary chemical and biocatalytic C–H functionalisation for the introduction...
