Comparison of direct esterification and transesterification of fructose by Candida antartica lipase

Abstract

Fructose oleates synthesis was performed in a batch reactor by trans- or direct esterification. An immobilized lipase from Candida antartica was used. When a solvent was used, 65% and 46% of conversion of fructose were obtained by transesterification and direct esterification, respectively. These two reactions were also compared in a solvent-free melt. Both in molten media and with cosolvent, two isomeric forms of fructose oleates were produced.
