Production of highly enantioselective (−)-menthyl butyrate using Candida rugosa lipase immobilized on epoxy-activated supports
Optically active (−)-menthyl butyrate was synthesized by enantioselective esterification of racemic (±)-menthol and butyric anhydride using lipase from Candida rugosa immobilized onto epoxy-activated supports of Eupergit C and Eupergit C 250 L through physical adsorption method. The effects of vario...
