Dual‐Function Cosubstrates Enable Threonine Dehydrogenase‐Driven Chemoenzymatic Pyrrole Synthesis

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Classical Knorr chemistry meets contemporary biocatalysis. Threonine dehydrogenase generates aminoacetone from l‐threonine, which is directly intercepted in a chemoenzymatic Knorr pyrrole synthesis. A dual‐function β‐dicarbonyl substrate serves as both pyrrole precursor and hydride acceptor for integrated NAD+ recycling, affording substituted pyrroles ...
