Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for preparing 2′-O-fucosyllactose, the 2′-O-fucosyllactose obtainable by this method and the use thereof. The method comprises reacting the persilylated, protected fucose derivatives of the formula (I) below, with at least one tri(C1-C6-alkyl)silyl iodide and subsequently reacting the product thus obtained with the compound of the general formula (II), in the presence of a base. In the formulae (I) and (II), the variables are each defined as follows: RSi are the same or different and are a residue of the formula SiRaRbRc; R1 is a C(═O)—R11 residue or an SiR12R13R14 residue, R2 are the same or different and are C1-C8-alkyl or together form a linear C3-C6-alkanediyl, which is unsubstituted or has 1 to 6 methyl groups as substituents; R3 are the same or different and are C1-C8-alkyl or together form a linear C1-C4-alkanediyl, which is unsubstituted or has 1 to 6 methyl groups as substituents.

Abstract:
Methods for the production of L-glufosinate (also known as phosphinothricin or (S)-2-amino-4-(hydroxy(methyl)phosphonoyl)butanoic acid) ammonium salt are provided. The methods comprise a refined multi-step process. The first step involves the oxidative deamination of D-glufosinate to PPO (2-oxo-4-(hydroxy(methyl)phosphinoyl)butyric acid). The second step involves the specific amination of PPO to L-glufosinate, using an amine group from one or more amine donors. The third step involves the enrichment of the desired enantiomer in the yield by conversion of the obtained side product to the desired final product as well. By addition of the third refinement step, the proportion of the D-glufosinate present in a mixture of L-glufosinate and D-glufosinate can substantially be converted to the desired L-glufosinate ammonium salt.
