  • Lipase PS-catalyzed transesterification of CITRONELLYL BUTYRATE (cas 141-16-2) and geranyl caproate: Effect of reaction parameters

  • Add time:09/30/2019    Source:infona.pl

    Pseudomonas sp. lipase PS was immobilized by adsorption and tested for its ability to catalyze the synthesis of CITRONELLYL BUTYRATE (cas 141-16-2) and geranyl caproate by transesterification in n-hexane. The reaction parameters investigated were: enzyme load, effect of substrate concentration, added water, temperature, time course, organic solvent, pH memory, and enzyme reuse. Yields as high as 96 and 99% were obtained for citronellyl butyrate and geranyl caproate, respectively, with 300 units (approx. 15% w/w of reactants) of lipase PS. Increasing amounts of terpene alcohol inhibited lipase activity, while excess acyl donor (triacylglycerol) concentration enhanced ester production. Optimal yields were obtained at temperatures from 30–50°C after 24-h incubation time. Yields of 90 and 99% were obtained for citronellyl and geranyl esters, respectively, with 2% added water. Solvents with log P values ≥ 2.5 showed the highest conversion yields. pH 7 and 6–8 seemed to be ideal for citronellyl butyrate and geraniol caproate, respectively. The lipase remained active after reusing 12 times.
