Esterification of D-glucose with oleic- and palmitic acids were carried out in the absence and presence of a biocatalyst, Candida antarctica lipase. The reaction medium was a mixture of dimethyl sulphoxide and tert-butanol (1:4, v/v). The reaction products were analysed by FTIR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR, HSQC, and by ESI-MS. Results indicated that the ester products formed were 6-O-glucose oleate and 6-O-glucose palmitate both in the absence and in the presence of the biocatalyst, with yields above 90%.
