Procedure

329 g of myristyl alcohol and 351 g of myristic acid were heated to 60° C. in a 1 l reservoir vessel and mixed by means of a magnetic stirrer (viscosity of the mixture at 60° C. approx. 6 mPas). The lower region of the reaction vessel was initially charged with 2.7 g of NOVOZYM 435 and the entire reaction vessel was heated to 60° C. The compressed air introduction was regulated to 0.4 l/min and then the peristaltic pump was set to ˜20 ml/min and switched on. The reflux was heated to 60° C. The course of the reaction was monitored for ˜25 h, and a conversion of 99.3% based on the fatty acid was achieved.
