Microfluidic biocatalytic transformations

In order to increase the efficiency of biocatalytic transformations conducted under continuous flow conditions, Honda et al. (2006, 2007) reported an integrated microfluidic system, consisting of an immobilized enzymatic microreactor and an in-line liquid-liquid extraction device, capable of achieving the optical resolution of racemic amino acids under continuous flow whilst enabling efficient recycle of the enzyme. As Scheme 42 illustrates, the first step of the optical resolution was an enzyme-catalyzed enantioselective hydrolysis of a racemic mixture of acetyl-D,L-phenylalanine to afford L-phenylalanine 157 (99.2-99.9% ee) and unreacted acetyl-D-phenylalanine 158. Acidification of the reaction products, prior to the addition of EtOAc, enabled efficient continuous extraction of L-phenylalanine 157 into the aqueous stream, whilst acetyl-D-phenylalanine 158 remained in the organic fraction (84—92% efficiency). Employing the optimal reaction conditions of 0.5 gl min 1 for the enzymatic reaction and 2.0 gl min-1 for the liquid-liquid extraction, the authors were able to resolve 240 nmol h-1 of the racemate. [Pg.153]

The second device was a multiplate-stacked microfluidic reactor, originally developed by Hessel, Lowe and co-workers for gas-phase transformations [lb] (Figure 3.2) and now adapted for biocatalytic processing with immobilized enzymes. [Pg.46]
