摘要: Alkylation of aromatic rings with alkyl halides is an important transformation in organic synthesis, yet enzymatic equivalent unknown. Here, we report that cylindrocyclophane biosynthesis Cylindrospermum licheniforme ATCC 29412 involves chlorination unactivated carbon center by a novel halogenase, followed previously uncharacterized dimerization reaction featuring sequential, stereospecific alkylations resorcinol rings. Discovery the machinery underlying this unique biosynthetic carbon-carbon bond formation has implications for biocatalysis and metabolic engineering.
