Abiological enzymes offers new opportunities for sustainable chemistry. Here we report the development of biological catalysts derived from sperm whale myoglobin that exploit a carbene transfer mechanism for the asymmetric synthesis of cyclopropane-fused-δ-lactones, which are key structural motifs found in many biologically active natural products. While hemin, wild-type myoglobin, and other hemoproteins are unable to catalyze this reaction, the myoglobin scaffold could be remodeled by protein engineering to permit the intramolecular cyclopropanation of a broad spectrum of homoallylic diazoacetate substrates in high yields and with up to 99% enantiomeric excess. Via an alternate evolutionary trajectory, a stereodivergent biocatalyst was also obtained for affording mirror-image forms of the desired bicyclic products. In combination with whole-cell transformations, the myoglobin-based biocatalyst was readily applied to enable the asymmetric construction of a cyclopropyl-δ-lactone scaffold at a gram scale, which could be further elaborated to furnish a variety of enantiopure trisubstituted cyclopropanes. Lords of the Rings: A biocatalytic strategy for the stereodivergent synthesis of cyclopropyl-δ-lactones via the intramolecular cyclopropanation of homoallylic diazoacetates is reported. Myoglobin was re-engineered into two enantiocomplementary biocatalysts capable of producing a range of aryl- and alkyl-substituted cyclopropane-fused δ-lactone scaffolds useful for medicinal chemistry and natural product synthesis.
