Microbial metabolism of nitroarenes via o-aminophenols requires the participation of two key enzymes, a nitroreductase and an hydroxylaminobenzene mutase. The broad substrate ranges of the enzymes suggested that they could be used as biocatalysts for the production of substituted o-aminophenols. We have used enzymes from Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes JS45 for the conversion of 4-nitrobiphenyl ether to the corresponding o-aminophenol. Partially purified nitrobenzene nitroreductase reduced 4-nitrobiphenyl ether to the corresponding 4-hydroxylaminobiphenyl ether. Partially purified hydroxylaminobenzene mutase stoichiometrically converted the intermediate to 2-amino-5-phenoxyphenol. The results indicate that the enzyme system can be applied for the production of o-aminophenols useful as intermediates for synthesis of commercially important materials.
