Terpene ester synthesis by lipase-catalyzed transesterification

Five lipases were screened for their ability to synthesize terpene esters by transesterification. The nature of terpene alcohol and enzyme, as well as the chain length of the acyl donor used affected the product yields. Lipase AY from Candida rugosa gave the best overall yield (96.2%). Geraniol and...

Zusammenfassung:	Five lipases were screened for their ability to synthesize terpene esters by transesterification. The nature of terpene alcohol and enzyme, as well as the chain length of the acyl donor used affected the product yields. Lipase AY from Candida rugosa gave the best overall yield (96.2%). Geraniol and tributyrin were also found to be the best reactants.
