A new method for fast and simple synthesis of crystalline TiO2 nanoparticles with photocatalytic activity was developed by carrying out a classic sol–gel reaction directly under vacuum. The use of microwaves for fast heating of the reaction medium further reduces synthesis times. When the solvent is completely removed by vacuum, the product is obtained in the form of a powder that can be easily redispersed in water to yield a stable nanoparticle suspension, exhibiting a comparable photocatalytic activity with respect to a commercial product. The present methodology can, therefore, be considered a process intensification procedure for the production of nanotitania.

Immobilization of transaminases creates promising biocatalysts for production of chiral amines in batch or continuous-flow mode reactions. E. coli cells containing overexpressed transaminases of various selectivities and hollow silica microspheres as supporting agent were immobilized by an improved sol-gel process to produce immobilized transaminase biocatalysts with suitable stability and mechanical properties for continuous-flow applications. The immobilized cell-based transaminase biocatalyst proved to be durable and easy-to-use in kinetic resolution of four racemic amines 1a–d. The batch and continuous-flow mode kinetic resolutions with transaminase biocatalyst of opposite stereopreference provided access to both enantiomers of the corresponding amines. By using the most suitable immobilized transaminase biocatalysts, this study describes the first transaminase-based approach for the production of both pure enantiomers of 1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)ethan-1-amine 1d.

<div>Transaminases are immobilized onto macrocellular silica monoliths and used for carrying a continuous flow mode transamination reaction. Monoliths were prepared via an emulsion-templated sol-gel method and functionalized by amino-moieties (APTES) in order to covalently immobilize the enzymes, using glutaraldehyde as a cross-linking agent. In order to obtain higher performance and improved reproducibility, we investigate the key parameters of APTES functionalization and of enzyme grafting. Four functionalization protocols were studied. It is shown that controlling the moisture levels in monolith and in the functionalisation solution led to a 3-fold increase in activity as compared to the previously reported data, and greatly improved the reproducibility. Additionally, we report a strong beneficial effect of running the enzyme immobilization at room temperature instead of 4°C, further enhancing the obtained activity. Finally, the popular method which consists in stabilizing the covalent attachment of the enzyme by reducing the imine bonds formed between the enzyme and the functionalized surface was investigated. We highlight a strong enzyme deactivation caused by cyanoborohydride, making this strategy irrelevant in this case. All in all, the improvements presented here for enzyme immobilization in macrocellular silica monoliths, lead to the preparation of more active materials for continuous flow mode biocatalysis.<br></div>
