Reaction Steps

A mixture of Novozym® 435 (2.21 g), molecular sieves (18.60 g), 1-dodecanol (3.76 g), and ethyl mandelate (3.61 g) in a 150 mL beaker was maintained at 60° C. in a convection oven for 28 hours. Upon work-up, 4.0 g of lauryl mandelate (56% yield) was obtained as a clear viscous liquid. The purity of the product was >95% as assessed by HPLC-DAD.
