Prochiral ketones can be effectively bio-reduced to chiral secondary alcohols by whole-cell biocatalysts, which are possible useful precursors to synthesize physiologically active chemicals and natural products. When whole-cell biocatalysts strains are used, bioreduction process can be influenced by various cultural factors, and it is vital to optimize these factors that affect selectivity, conversion rate, and yield. In this study, Weissella cibaria N9 was used as whole-cell biocatalyst for bioreduction of 1-(thiophen-2-yl)ethanone, and cultural design factors were optimized using a desirability function-embedded face-centered optimization model. For this, effects of pH (4.5–5.5–6.5, x 1), (2) temperature (25–30–35 °C, x 2), (3) incubation period (24–48–72 h, x 3), and (4) agitation speed (100–150–200 rpm, x 4) on two response variables; (1) ee (%) and (2) cr (%) were tested. Next, desirability function-embedded face-centered optimization model revealed that a pH of 6.43, a temperature of 26.04 °C, an incubation period of 52.41 h, and an agitation speed of 150 rpm were the optimum levels and the estimated ee and cr responses were 99.31% and 98.16%, respectively. Importantly, the actual experimental ee and cr responses were similar to the estimated values indicating the capability of the offered desirability function-embedded face-centered optimization model when using the optimum cultural conditions.

Sulfur-containing chiral heterocyclic secondary alcohols are relevant intermediates in the preparation of enantiomerically pure compounds endowed with biological activity. In this report, we evaluated the reductive potential of different lactic acid bacteria as whole-cell biocatalysts of the enantioselective reduction of 1-(thiophen-2-yl)ethanone (1). Enterococcus faecium BY48, isolated from boza, a cereal-based fermented beverage, was found to be the best biocatalyst in our initial investigations. Using whole-cell preparations of E. faecium BY48, we then systematically analyzed the reaction parameters (pH, incubation period, agitation speed, and temperature) to optimize the yield, the enantiomeric excess (e. e.), and the conversion leading to (S)-1-(thiophen-2-yl)ethanol [(S)-2]. The target derivative, which is a precursor in the synthesis of biologically active chiral compounds, was obtained in enantiomerically pure form, gram-scale amounts, and high yield. This is also the first report that the manufacture of (S)-2 in excellent conversion, yield, enantiopure form, and gram scale used whole-cell biocatalyst. This whole-cell E. faecium BY48 biocatalyzed reaction is a clean, environmentally friendly, and cost-effective process, representing a valuable alternative to chemical catalysis or previously reported biocatalytic procedures in the preparation of (S)-2.
