Abstract

The enantioselective oxidation of a series of heterocyclic prochiral sulfides to chiral sulfoxides has been examined using the fungal biocatalysts Helminthosporium species NRRL 4671 and Mortierella isabellina ATCC 42613. Methylthiofuranyl and-thiophenyl substrates gave (S)-configuration products in low to moderate enantiomeric purity on biotransformation with H. species, but pyridyl sulfides with the nitrogen atom located at an ...
