Title: Innovations of Nicholas Turner
Introduction
Nicholas Turner is a prominent inventor based in Manchester, GB. He has made significant contributions to the field of biocatalysis and organic chemistry. With a total of 2 patents, his work focuses on innovative processes that enhance chemical synthesis.
Latest Patents
Turner's latest patents include a novel process for the regioselective hydroxylation of isophorone. This invention relates to a biocatalytic conversion of isophorone, particularly a one-pot system for converting α-isophorone through a two-step oxidation process. The first oxidation is catalyzed by a heme-containing oxidoreductase, such as a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase, followed by a second oxidation that can be either a chemical or biocatalytic reaction. This invention also provides polypeptides and nucleic acid sequences coding for cytochrome P450 monooxygenase with enhanced substrate selectivity and reactivity. Additionally, he has developed a process for preparing α-acyloxy β-formamido amides, which involves reacting specific compounds under conditions that yield the desired product. The obtained products serve as intermediates for various peptidomimetics and are useful in synthesizing prolyl dipeptide structures.
