1. A dye-linked alcohol dehydrogenase was purified 20-fold from extracts of Rhodopseudomonas acidophila 10050 grown anaerobically in the light on methanol/HCO3-. 2. The enzyme resembled many previously reported methanol dehydrogenases from other methylotrophic organisms in coupling to phenazine methosulphate, requiring ammonia as an activator, possessing a pH optimum of 9 and a mol.wt. of approx. 116000. In many other respects the enzyme showed singular properties. 3. The stability of the enzyme under various conditions of temperature and pH was studied. 4. Primary aliphatic amines containing up to nine carbon atoms (the longest tested) were better activators than ammonia. 5. A wide range of primary alcohols and aldehydes served as substrates, with apparent Km values ranging from 57 mM for methanol to 6 micron for ethanol. 6. O2 was an inhibitor competitive with respect to the alcohol substrate. In the presence of O2, apparent Km values of 145 mM were recorded for methanol. 6. Cyanide and alphaalpha'-bipyridine were inhibitors competitive with respect to the amine activator. 7. The properties of the enzyme from Rhodopseudomonas acidophila are compared with those of similar enzymes from other organisms, and implications of the salient differences are discussed.

A Pdᴵᴵ-catalyzed, ligand-enabled gamma-C(sp3)–H arylation of free primary aliphatic amines and amino esters without using an exogenous directing group is reported. This reaction is compatible with unhindered free aliphatic amines, and it is also be applicable to the rapid synthesis of biologically and synthetically valuable unnatural α-amino acids. Large scale synthesis is also feasible using this method.<br>

A formal total synthesis of pancratistatin was accomplished by conversion of advanced intermediates, used in the synthesis of narciclasine, to pancratistatin precursors via Myers’ reductive transposition as the key strategic step. The synthesis began with the whole cell fermentation of m-dibromobenzene with JM109(pDTG601a), a recombinant strain that over-expresses toluene dioxygenase, which provided the corresponding cis-dihydrodiol 16 as a single isomer with complete optical purity. The key reductive transposition of the allylic alcohol 8a to olefin 9a allowed for further installation of the C-1/C-2 trans-diol, ­required for the pancratistatin scaffold, through the introduction of a cyclic sulfate and its subsequent opening. The formal synthesis of pancratistatin was accomplished in 14 steps (12 operations) from commercially available m-dibromobenzene. Experimental and spectral data are provided for all new compounds.
