Procedure
329 g of myristyl alcohol and 351 g of myristic acid were heated to 60° C. in a 1 L initial charge vessel and mixed by means of a magnetic stirrer. 2.72 g of Novozym 435 were added and the water of reaction formed was removed by applying a vacuum of 5 mbar, and the water was distilled off. The course of the reaction was monitored for ˜24 h by means of acid number titration (cf. Table 1).
