In general, if the atoms that make up the ring contain heteroatoms, such rings become heterocycles, and organic compounds containing heterocycles are called heterocyclic compounds. An article called Asymmetric synthesis of S-carboxymethyl-L-cysteine by a chemicoenzymic method, published in 1988-09-30, which mentions a compound: 2150-55-2, Name is 2-Amino-4,5-dihydrothiazole-4-carboxylic acid, Molecular C4H6N2O2S, Electric Literature of C4H6N2O2S.
A chemienzymic method is developed for production of S-carboxymethyl-L-cysteine (I) from DL-2-aminothiazoline-4-carboxylic acid (II) in the presence of ClCH2CO2H using a hydrolyzing system. The carboxymethylation of L-cysteine with ClCH2CO2H to I proceeded effectively at 26° and pH ≥8.0, the yield reaching nearly 100%. The carboxymethylation of II with ClCH2CO2H was not observed Next, the production of I from II in the presence of ClCH2CO2H was examined using rinsed cells of Pseudomonas desmolytica AJ-11898. About 10 g I/L was produced from 18 g II/L in 8 h, the molar yield being 45%. This finding shows that the aminothiazolinecarboxylate racemase in P. desmolytica AJ-11898 may be inhibited by the ClCH2CO2H added to the reaction mixture In fact, the II remaining in the reaction mixture was in the D-form. Moreover, the yield of L-cysteine from DL-II in the absence of ClCH2CO2H was ∼50% when cells of AJ-11898 pretreated with SH reagents were used as the enzyme source.
