ABSTRACT
A simple method is presented to esterify 1-O-hexadecyl-rac-glycerol using lipases in different organic solvents. The following fatty acids were used C140, C160, C180, C181, and C182. Monoesterification was achieved by using a limiting amount of fatty acid. Both the 1-O-hexadecyl-3-O-acylglycerol and the 2-O-acylglycerol were obtained in a total yield of 75% and a ratio 71 in dichloromethane after 3 d. Chromatographic data for the monoesters, useful for the identification of the natural products, are given (gas-liquid chromatography, thin-layer chromatography, reverse-phase thin-layer chromatography). The structure was confirmed by a chemical synthesis of 1-O-hexadecyl-2-O-hexadecanoylglycerol. The 3-O-glyceride was also formed by acyl migration, as the minor component. The monoesters were separated by column chromatography and characterized by 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectra.
