Singhania, Vani published the artcileLipase-catalyzed esterification in water enabled by nanomicelles. Applications to 1-pot multi-step sequences, Recommanded Product: 3-Benzoylpropionicacid, the publication is Chemical Science (2022), 13(5), 1440-1445, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.
Esterification in an aqueous micellar medium is catalyzed by a com. available lipase in the absence of any co-factors. The presence of only 2 wt% designer surfactant, TPGS-750-M, assisted in a 100% selective enzymic process in which only primary alcs. participated (in a 1:1 ratio with carboxylic acid). An unexpected finding was also disclosed where the simple additive, PhCF3 (1 equivalent vs. substrate), appeared to significantly extend the scope of usable acid/alc. combinations. Taken together, several chemo- and bio-catalyzed 1-pot, multi-step reactions was performed in water.
