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.

Rapeseed lipase catalyzed synthesis of butyl butyrate for flavour and nutraceutical applications in organic media

experimental part, p. 6 - 13 (2012/06/18)
Butyl butyrate, a short chain ester with fine fruity pineapple odour, is a significant flavour compound. Recent investigations show that butyrate esters also have anticancer activity. Factors influencing the synthesis of butyl butyrate by organic phase biocatalysis were investigated. Maximum ester yield of 89% was obtained when 0.25 M butanol and butyric acid were reacted at 25 °C for 48 h in the presence of 250 mg rape seed lipase acetone powder in hexane. Addition of water did not affect synthesis, while a water activity of 0.45 was found optimum. Of 15 different alcohols evaluated, isoamyl and (Z)-3- hexen-1-ol were esterified most effectively with molar conversion yields of 92.2 and 80.2%. Short chain primary alcohols such as methanol and medium-long chain alcohols, such as heptanol and octanol were esterified more slowly. The results show that rape seed lipase is versatile catalyst for ester synthesis with temperature stability range 5-50 °C.
Metal bis(perfluorooctanesulfonyl)amides as highly efficient Lewis acid catalysts for fluorous biphase organic reactions

In fluorous biphase system, metal bis(perfluorooctanesulfonyl)amides are better Lewis acid catalysts than the analogous triflates toward either transesterifications, or direct esterifications, or Friedel-Crafts acylations or Baeyer-Villiger oxidations. These catalysts are selectively soluble in lower fluorous phase and can be recovered simply by phase separation. Furthermore, these catalysts can be reused without decrease of activity in most cases.
