The kinetics of the immobilized lipase B from Candida antarctica have been studied in organic solvents. This enzyme has been shown to be slightly affected by the water content of the organic media, and it does not seem to be subject to mass transfer limitations. On the other hand, some evidence indi
A technique of continuous water activity control was used to examine the effects of water activity on enzyme catalysis in organic media. Esterification catalyzed by Rhizopus arrhizus lipase was preferably carried out at a water activity of 0.33, which resulted in both maximal initial reaction rate a
Substituent effects on the enantioselectivity for the lipase-catalyzed esterifications in organic solvents were studied by use of 2-(4-substituted phenoxy)propionic acids as the substrates with various substituents of H, F, Cl, CF 3 , CH 3 , CH 3 CH 2 , and CH 3 O. The distinction in the behavior of
Enzymatic ester hydrolysis and ammoniolysis were performed as competitive reactions in methyl isobutyl ketone without a separate aqueous phase. The reaction system contained solid ammonium bicarbonate, which dissolved as water, ammonia, and carbon dioxide. During the reaction an organic liquid phase
