Reaction Steps
A mixture of capric acid (0.86 g=5 mmole), sorbitol (ex Aldrich Chemical Co.) (0.91 g=5 mmole), t-butanol (500 μl), water (70 μl) and potato protein extract (100 mg) was stirred at 35° C. in a stoppered tube for 72 hours. Analysis of the resulting reaction mixture showed that sorbitol monocaprate (0.12 mmoles) and sorbitol dicaprate (0.04 mmoles) were formed.
