Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, a challenging problem in the biocatalytic process of nitrilase is that there are many by-products, the product purification process is tedious, and it is difficult to achieve both yield and optical purity. For example, patent CN1942587B uses NIT-101, NIT-102, NIT-103 and pseudo The yield and optical purity of preparing (S)-3-cyano-5-methylhexanoic acid from isobutylsuccinonitrile catalyzed by A. thaliana nitrilase correspond to: yield 34.2%, optical purity 96.3% e.e.; Yield 38.6%, Optical Purity 91.1% e.e.; Yield 35.5%, Optical Purity 95.5% e.e. and Yield 17.5%, Optical Purity 98.5% e.e.

Embodiment 1

[0044] Embodiment 1 constructs recombinant nitrilase engineering bacterium

[0045] According to the report in NCBI, the turnip (Brassica rapa) nitrilase BrNIT (ABM55734.1), BrNIT2 (BAG72074), Arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis thaliana) nitrilase AtNIT (NP 851011) and alpine Arabidopsis (Arabis alpine) nitrile The gene sequence was fully synthesized by the hydrolase AaNIT (KFK44999), and restriction sites XhoI and XbaI were designed at both ends, and cloned into the empty vector pET28b to obtain a recombinant plasmid, which was recovered and transformed into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3), and the positive bacteria were cultured to obtain Recombinant nitrilase gene engineering bacteria BL21(DE3) / pET28b-BrNIT, BL21(DE3) / pET28b-BrNIT2, BL21(DE3) / pET28b-AtNIT and BL21(DE3) / pET28b-AaNIT.

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method for synthesizing a pregabalin chiral intermediate through regio-selective and stereo-selective bio-catalytic synthesis. The method comprises the followingsteps: reacting racemic isobutyl butyronitrile (IBSN) in a reaction medium at a temperature of 20-50 DEG C in presence of nitrilase and amidase catalysis for 4-10 hours, thereby obtaining (S)-3-cyano-5-methyl hexanoate. The method is mild in reaction conditions, simple and feasible in operation and excellent in regio-selectivity and stereo-selectivity, the conversion rate of the pregabalin key chiral intermediate, namely (S)-3-cyano-5-methyl hexanoate, synthesized from the racemic substrate IBSN through a one-pot process can reach 49.5%, the value e.e. is 99.5%, and the conversion rate is close to a theoretical conversion rate of 50%. Meanwhile, the optical purity exceeds 99%, and the method has obvious application values for simplifying the production process steps of pregabalin and reducing the production cost of the pregabalin.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biochemical industry, specifically, the invention relates to a nitrilase, amidase two-step enzymatic region, stereoselective biocatalyzed synthesis of racemic 3-cyano-5-methylcapronitrile (IBSN) A method for the key chiral intermediate of pregabalin (S)-3-cyano-5-methylhexanoic acid. Background technique [0002] Pregabalin, chemical name (S)-(+)-3-aminomethyl-5-methylhexanoic acid (I), is a new type of γ-aminobutyric acid (γ-aminobutyric acid, GABA ) receptor agonist, can effectively block the voltage-dependent calcium channel, reduce the release of neurotransmitters, and have good therapeutic effects on anxiety and neuropathic pain (Angew.Chem.Int.Ed., 2008,47:3500-3504 ). [0003] [0004] Compared with traditional drugs, pregabalin has the advantages of low dose, less frequency, less toxic and side effects, long duration, and strong tolerance, and is considered to be one of the most promising antiepileptic...
