Selective oxidation of aromatic sulfide catalyzed by an artificial metalloenzyme: new activity of hemozymes.

Two new artificial hemoproteins or "hemozymes", obtained by non covalent insertion of Fe(III)-meso-tetra-p-carboxy- and -p-sulfonato-phenylporphyrin into xylanase A from Streptomyces lividans, were characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy and molecular modeling studies, and were found to catalyze the chemo- and stereoselective oxidation of thioanisole into the S sulfoxide, the best yield (85 +/- 4%) and enantiomeric excess (40% +/- 3%) being obtained with Fe(III)-meso-tetra-p-carboxyphenylporphyrin-Xln10A as catalyst in the presence of imidazole as co-catalyst.
