This work describes the continuous synthesis of ethyl esters via enzymatic catalysis on a packed‐bed continuous reactor, using mixtures of immobilized lipases (combi‐lipases) of Candida antarctica (CALB), Thermomyces lanuginosus (TLL), and Rhizomucor miehei (RML). The influence of the addition of glass beads to the reactor bed, evaluation of the use of different solvents, and flow rate on reaction conditions were studied.
Novozyme 435, which is a commercial immobilized lipase B from Candida antarctica (CALB), has been proven to be inadequate for the kinetic resolution of rac‐indanyl acetate. As it has been previously described that different immobilization protocols may greatly alter lipase features, in this work, CALB was covalently immobilized on epoxy Immobead‐350 (IB‐350) and on glyoxyl‐agarose to ascertain if better kinetic resolution would result.
