Ester derivatives of phenolic glycosides have attracted more attention in food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries, due to their potent biological activities. In the present study, a group of novel aromatic esters of arbutin were successfully synthesized by using immobilized lipase from Penicillium expansum with excellent 6′-regioselectivities (>99%) and moderate to excellent isolated yields (68-93%), except for 6′-O-vanilloyl-arbutin and 6′-O-(p-hydroxycinnamoyl)-arbutin with 28% and 34% yields, respectively. Among all the acyl donors tested, the lipase was most active towards vinyl 3-phenylpropionate, while remarkable decrease in the activity was recorded when the phenyl of acyl donors carried the hydroxyl and/or methoxyl.
