Reaction of dibenzo[b,e]thiepin-11(6H)-one with 2-(dimethylaminomethyl)cyclohexylmagnesium chloride gave a mixture of stereoisomeric amino alcohols IX from which four homogeneous bases (IXa to IXd) were separated by chromatography. Dehydration of these compounds with boiling dilute hydrochloric acid afforded mixtures of racemic geometric isomers of the title compound VII, which were separated by crystallization. To the prevailing less polar base VIIa (E)-configuration was assigned on the basis of the IR spectrum. Using a similar procedure, thieno[2,3-c]-2-benzothiepin-4(9H)-one gave mixture of amino alcohols X from which three homogeneous stereoisomers X-A to X-C were isolated. Their dehydration resulted in both expected racemic geometric isomers VIII-A and VIII-B. Pharmacological testing proved the character of an antidepressant for the semi-rigid analogue of dithiadene VIII.

Immobilized multi-enzyme cascades are increasingly used in microfluidic devices. In particular, their application in continuous flow reactors shows great potential, utilizing the benefits of reusability and control of the reaction conditions. However, capitalizing on this potential is challenging and requires detailed knowledge of the investigated system. Here, we show the application of computational methods for optimization with multi-level reactor design (MLRD) methodology based on the underlying physical and chemical processes. We optimize a stereoselective reduction of a diketone catalyzed by ketoreductase (Gre2) and Nicotinamidadenindinukleotidphosphat (NADPH) cofactor regeneration with glucose dehydrogenase (GDH). Both enzymes are separately immobilized on magnetic beads forming a packed bed within the microreactor. We derive optimal reactor feed concentrations and enzyme ratios for enhanced performance and a basic economic model in order to maximize the techno-economic performance (TEP) for the first reduction of 5-nitrononane-2,8-dione.
