Solvent‐free enzymatic synthesis of fatty alkanolamides
Abstract An environmentally benign and volume efficient process for enzymatic production of alkanolamides is described. Immobilized Candida antarctica lipase B, Novozym®435, was used to catalyze the condensation of lauric acid with monoethanolamine. The reaction temperature of 90°C was required to k...
