Novel Chemoselective Deesterification of Esters of Polyacetoxy Aromatic Acids by Lipases. -The lipase-catalyzed deacetylation of Me and Et esters of 6 different polyphenolic acids in organic solvents is studied. Both lipases lead exclusively to the deesterification of the phenolic hydroxy groups. -(

✦ Synopsis
Candida cylindracea lipase (CCL) and porcine pancreatic lipase (PPL) have been used for deacetylation of peracetstes of methyl and ethyl esters of six different polyphenolic acids in organic solvents. Exclusive de-estefification of the ester groups derived from the phenolic hydroxy and aliphatic acid over the ester group of the aromatic acid and aliphatic alcohol has been achieved affording the corresponding esters of phenolic acids in as high yields as 90-97%. The results have been corroborated with the mechanism of lipase action.

## Abstract Linear copolymeric polyesters (polyoxoesters) containing thioether functions [poly(3,3′‐thiodipropionic acid‐__co__‐α,ω‐alkanediols)] were formed in good yield by esterification of an equimolar mixture of 3,3′‐thiodipropionic acid (4‐thiaheptane‐1,7‐dioic acid) and 1,6‐hexanediol (weigh
