- Efficient Enzymatic Preparation of Flavor Esters in Water
-
A straightforward biocatalytic method for the enzymatic preparation of different flavor esters starting from primary alcohols (e.g., isoamyl, n-hexyl, geranyl, cinnamyl, 2-phenethyl, and benzyl alcohols) and naturally available ethyl esters (e.g., formate, acetate, propionate, and butyrate) was developed. The biotransformations are catalyzed by an acyltransferase from Mycobacterium smegmatis (MsAcT) and proceeded with excellent yields (80-97%) and short reaction times (30-120 min), even when high substrate concentrations (up to 0.5 M) were used. This enzymatic strategy represents an efficient alternative to the application of lipases in organic solvents and a significant improvement compared with already known methods in terms of reduced use of organic solvents, paving the way to sustainable and efficient preparation of natural flavoring agents.

- Cinnamyl alcohol fatty acid ester derivative and application and preparation method thereof
-
The invention relates to a derivative and an application and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a cinnamyl alcohol fatty acid ester derivative and an application and a preparation method thereof. As application of a percutaneous absorption penetration enhancer, a percutaneous administration preparation is prepared, so that the percutaneous absorption of a drug is improved, and the cumulative penetration amount of the drug is increased. The cinnamyl alcohol fatty acid ester derivative is prepared into fatty acyl chloride, and the fatty acyl chloride reacts with cinnamyl alcohol to obtain the cinnamyl alcohol fatty acid ester derivative. The compound can be applied to the percutaneous administration preparation to enhance the drug permeability, can further be used as perfume to cover up the bad smell of the preparation, and has wide potential application prospects.

- Solvent stability study with thermodynamic analysis and superior biocatalytic activity of Burkholderia cepacia lipase immobilized on biocompatible hybrid matrix of poly(vinyl alcohol) and hypromellose
-
In the present study, we have synthesized a biocompatible hybrid carrier of hypromellose (HY) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) for immobilization of Burkholderia cepacia lipase (BCL). The immobilized biocatalyst HY:-PVA:BCL was subjected to determination of half-life time (τ) and deactivation rate constant (KD) in various organic solvents. Biocatalyst showed higher τ-value in a nonpolar solvent like cyclohexane (822 h) as compared to that of a polar solvent such as acetone (347 h), which signifies better compatibility of biocatalyst in the nonpolar solvents. Furthermore, the KD-value was found to be less in cyclohexane (0.843 × 10-3) as compared to acetone (1.997 × 10-3), indicating better stability in the nonpolar solvents. Immobilized-BCL (35 mg) was sufficient to achieve 99% conversion of phenethyl butyrate (natural constituent of essential oils and has wide industrial applications) using phenethyl alcohol (2 mmol) and vinyl butyrate (6 mmol) at 44 °C in 3 h. The activation energy (Ea) was found to be lower for immobilized-BCL than crude-BCL, indicating better catalytic e fficiency of immobilized lipase BCL. The immobilized-BCL reported 6-fold superior biocatalytic activity and 8 times recyclability as compared to crude-BCL. Improved catalytic activity of immobilized enzyme in nonpolar media was also supported by thermodynamic activation parameters such as enthalpy (ΔH?), entropy (ΔS?) and Gibb 's free energy (ΔG?) study, which showed that phenethyl butyrate synthesis catalyzed by immobilized-BCL was feasible as compared to crude-BCL. The present work explains a thermodynamic investigation and superior biocatalytic activity for phenethyl butyrate synthesis using biocompatible immobilized HY:PVA:BCL in nonaqueous media for the first time.
