A chemoenzymatic synthesis method was described, which achieved yield enhancement by using different reducing agents and a fluorinated analogue. This synthesis route revealed the mechanism of the MqnD-catalyzed reaction.
MqnD catalyzes the conversion of cyclic dehypoxanthine futalosine (6) to 5,8-dihydroxy-2-naphthoic acid (7) and an uncharacterized product. This study describes a chemoenzymatic synthesis of 6. This synthesis achieved a 2-fold yield enhancement by using titanium(III) citrate as the reducing agent and another 5-fold yield enhancement using a fluorinated analogue of dehypoxanthine futalosine (5) that was converted to 6 by an ipso substitution mechanism. This synthetic route enabled the synthesis of 6 in sufficient quantity to identify the second reaction product and to determine that the MqnD-catalyzed reaction proceeds by a hemiacetal ring opening-tautomerization-retroaldol sequence.
