New cholic acid derivatives: Biocatalytic synthesis and molecular docking study

A series of cholic acid derivatives was synthesized by enzyme catalysis. Eleven acetyl and ester derivatives of cholic acid, eight of them new compounds, were obtained through regioselective lipase-catalyzed reactions in very good to excellent yield. The influence of various reaction parameters in t...

Sumario:A series of cholic acid derivatives was synthesized by enzyme catalysis. Eleven acetyl and ester derivatives of cholic acid, eight of them new compounds, were obtained through regioselective lipase-catalyzed reactions in very good to excellent yield. The influence of various reaction parameters in the enzymatic esterification, acetylation and alcoholysis reactions, such as enzyme source, alcohol or acylating agent: substrate ratio, enzyme: substrate ratio, solvent and temperature, was studied. Moreover, in order to shed light to cholic acid behavior in the enzymatic reactions, molecular docking of the lipase with cholic acid and some derivatives was carried out. © 2015 Elsevier Inc.
