Enzymatic Resolution of Zeaxanthin

Enzymatic esterification of optically inactive zeaxanthin with propanoic or palmitic acid in hexane with Candida cylindracea lipase gave the corresponding (3R,3′R)-diesters in 20% and 50% ee, respectively. When using the optically pure enantiomers the enzymatic esterification rate of (3R,3′R)-zeaxan...

Zusammenfassung:	Enzymatic esterification of optically inactive zeaxanthin with propanoic or palmitic acid in hexane with Candida cylindracea lipase gave the corresponding (3R,3′R)-diesters in 20% and 50% ee, respectively. When using the optically pure enantiomers the enzymatic esterification rate of (3R,3′R)-zeaxanthin was higher than for the enantiomer.
