Lipase catalyzed synthesis of flavor esters in non-aqueous media: Optimization of the yield of pentyl 2-methylpropanoate by statistical analysis

In this study, the synthesis of pentyl 2-methylpropanoate employing a commercial lipase from Candida rugosa was investigated, the emphasis being placed on analyzing the effects of various process conditions on the yield of ester. The response surface methodology (RSM) and five-level-five-factor cent...
