A tandem enzymatic strategy to enhance the scope ofC‐alkylation of small molecules via the in situ formation ofS‐adenosyl methionine (SAM) cofactor analogues is described. A solvent‐exposed channel present in the SAM‐forming enzyme SalL tolerates 5′‐chloro‐5′‐deoxyadenosine (ClDA) analogues modified at the 2‐position of the adenine nucleobase. Coupling SalL‐catalyzed cofactor production withC‐(m)ethyl transfer to coumarin substrates catalyzed by the methyltransferase (MTase) NovO formsC‐(m)ethylated coumarins in superior yield and greater substrate scope relative to that obtained using cofactors lacking nucleobase modifications. Establishing the molecular determinants that influenceC‐alkylation provides the basis to develop a late‐stage enzymatic platform for the preparation of high value small molecules.
