Lipase catalyzed acylation of glucose

Ljunger, Gudrun ; Adlercreutz, Patrick LU orcid and Mattiasson, Bo LU (1994) In Biotechnology Letters 16(11). p.1167-1172
Abstract

Octanoylglucose was synthesized from insoluble glucose and octanoic acid in acetonitrile, using lipase from Candida antarctica as catalyst. The initial concentration of octanoic acid was optimized to give complete conversion of glucose to monoester and avoid diester formation. The acylation occurred exclusively at the primary hydroxyl group on the glucose ring.
