β¦ Synopsis
The synthesis of sugar esters catalysed by lipase in organic solvents was studied.
Immobilized
Candida and hlucor miehei lipase catalysed the synthesis of fructose and glucose esters of stearic acid in tertiary butyl alcohol with yields of 10 to 24 %. In the presence of phenyl or butyl boronic acid synthesis of glucose ester was achieved in hexane, heptane, benzene and toluene. The only positive reaction on disaccharides was found with palatinose.

Lipase-catalyzed synthesis of sugar fatty acid esters was performed in a heterogeneous reaction system in the presence of an organic solvent serving as adjuvant. Although the sugar is almost insoluble in such a system, high conversions to the corresponding sugar esters were achieved, due to crystall
