Oxidative cyclizations, exemplified by the biosynthetic assembly of the penicillin nucleus from a tripeptide precursor, are arguably the most synthetically-powerful implementation of C-H activation reactions in Nature. Here we show that Rieske oxygenase-like enzymes mediate regio and stereodivergent oxidative cyclizations to form 10- and 12-membered carbocyclic rings in the key steps of the biosynthesis of the antibiotics streptorubin B and metacycloprodigiosin, respectively. These reactions represent the first examples of oxidative carbocyclizations catalyzed by non-heme iron-dependent oxidases and define a novel type of catalytic activity for Rieske enzymes. A better understanding of how these enzymes achieve such remarkable regio and stereocontrol in the functionalization of unactivated hydrocarbon chains will greatly facilitate the development of selective manmade C-H activation catalysts.
