Abstract The purpose of this investigation was to develop conditions for producing 2‐monoricinoleoyl DAG. We used lipase‐catalyzed hydrolysis of triricinolein to obtain 2‐monoricinolein and thereafter synthesized 1,2(2,3)‐diricinolein through esterification of 2‐monoricinolein, using ricinoleic acid...
