Esterification of Octanoic Acid with 1-octanoi Catalyzed by Lipase in W/O Microemulsions and in Microemulsion-based Organogels
脂肪酶在微乳液和微乳液凝胶中催化辛酸辛醇的酯化反应

The esterification reactions of octanoic acid with 1\|octanol catalyzed by Candida lypolytical (CL) lipase was studied in water\|in\|oil microemulsions formed by water/bis\|(2\|ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate sodium(AOT)/isooctane.The results of kinetic study showed that the reaction follows a Ping\|Pong Bi\|Bi mechanism.The values of apparent kinetic parameters were determined.Lipase has also been immobilized in gelatin\|containing AOT microemulsion\|based organogels (MBGs) for retention of catalytic activity.These lipase\|containing MBGs proved to be a solid\|phase catalysts for use in apolar organic solvents,retaining its higher activity after many runs of esterification reactions.
