โฆ Synopsis
L-Malic acid was produced efficiently from fumatic acid by Saccharomyces cerevisiae SHY2. The amount of L-malic acid produced increased with the increase in initial fumaric acid concentration (from 20 to 120 g/L). The average specific and volumetric production rates reached up to 0.708 g/gob and 2.787 g/L.h, respectively, in 24 hours. Final L-malic acid concentration of up to 109 g/L was obtained in 96 hours.

Several microorganisms including Pseudomonas fluorescens, Ps. putida, -Bacillus megaterium, Acinetobacter lwofii, Klebsiella oxytoca, 5. pneumoniae, Serratia rubidaea and Bulleromyces albus were selected for the ability to assimilate specifically L-malic acid. D-Malic acid with high optical purity (
6-epi-D-Purpurosamine B was synthesized efficiently through a chiral Z-olefin 8 derived from L-alanine and L-malic acid under complete stereochemical control by using iodocyclocarbamation as the key reaction.
