According to the literature 3-phenylpropionate, 4-methylpentanoate, 2_methylpropionate, 2-or 3-methylbutyrate and others are products of many different proteolytic and amino acid fermenting clostridia [l-3]. 4-Methylpentanoate and other volatile acids are also products of propionibacteria [4] or peptostreptococci [5]. Surprisingly the route and the enzymes leading to these products are not known. We described enoate reductase a conjugated Fe-S flavoprotein which reduces nonactivated (II, P-unsaturated carboxylates in a NADH-dependent reaction [6]. The source was C. La 1 a non-proteolytic clostridium grown on (E)-2-butenoate. We found the same type of enzyme in C. kluyveri and the proteolytic C. sporogenes. However, their substrate specificity was rather different [7]. Duringour studies on the occurrence and physiological role of enoate reductases in amino acid fermenting clostridia we suggested an oxidative and a reductive branch to explain the above-mentioned products [7]. We compared the capability of resting cells of C. sporogenes as well as Peptostreptococcus anaerobius to convert L-phenylalanine,(2R)-phenyllactate, phenylpyruvate and cinnamate to 3-phenylpropionate. Nevertheless, the processes seem to be so similiar the sterical course of the reduction of (E) cinnamate to 3-phenylpropionate by C. sporogenes and P. anaerobius is different. The preparation of two further stereospecifically deuterated 3-phenylpropionates is an additional result.
