Lipase-Catalysed Synthesis of Fatty Aminoesters from Fatty Acids and Triethanolamine

Fatty aminoesters containing mixtures of mono-, di- and triaminoesters were prepared from the enzyme-catalysed esterification of fatty acids and triethanolamine in organic solvents. Screening of enzymes suitable for the reactions was carried out by conducting the esterification reaction in n-hex...

Effects of some reaction parameters such as time course, temperature, substrate mole ratio, substrate concentration, amount of enzyme and thermodynamic water activity were also investigated based on esterification of oleic acid and triethanolamine catalysed by Lipozyme 1M and Novozym 435 in n-hexane.
