## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** Reactions performed under solvent‐free conditions give processes that are environmentally friendly, since most solvents are polluting agents. In this work, the performance of __Candida rugosa__ lipae (CRL) immobilized on styrene‐divinylbenzene (STY‐DVB) or controlled po

The direct, lipase-catalyzed esterifications of glycerol-3-phosphate in an organic solvent system and in a solvent free system were carried out. In a solvent free system only, LPA synthesis could be achieved within the acceptable reaction time. Open reaction system was preferable to closed reaction
Gcraniol esters were synthesised by direct esterification catalysed by esterases and lipases (five enzymes were tested) in a solvent-flee system at 37 °C. The best conversions yields, about 85 %, on gerunyl butyrate and valerate obtained with esterase 30 000 from Mucor miehei. The effect of substrat
Citronellol esterification catalyzed by Candida antarctica lipase is performed with high yields (74%) in a solvent-free medium. The use of dessicants gives a 10% yield enhancement and substrate excess consumption by adding calculated amounts of acetic acid lead to a 80% pure citronellyl acetate. Qua
## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** Adipate esters are used as low‐temperature and low‐viscosity plasticizers for polyvinyl chloride and its copolymers. In this work, optimization of lipase‐catalyzed production of dilauryl adipate was carried out using response surface methodology (RSM) based on a four‐fac
