In the first approach, N -Boc L -glutamic acid is mono-benzylesterified by the protease Alcalase with 81% yield; and in the other three approaches, a biocatalytic γ-selective hydrolysis of ...

Using NMR to follow the reaction process, Shi, et al. first tested acid hydrolysis using DCl added to D 2 O in a solution containing diester and the cavitand. One end of the ester is deep within ...

Esters are formed in condensation reactions and broken by hydrolysis. Fats and oils, important compounds in our diet, are naturally occurring esters and their structure explains their properties.

The hydrolysis of synthetic esters (SEs), including phthalates and adipates, in damp indoor environments can lead to the release of volatile organic compounds implicated in poor air quality and acute ...

The hydrolysis of indophenyl acetate (IPA) and of acyl esters of thiocholine was effected by a 12,800 g supernatant fraction prepared from homogenates of whole twospotted spider mites, Tetranychus ...

We examined the hydrolysis of dibenzyl ether, benzyl t-butyl ether, methyl t-butyl ether, methylbenzoate, and diphenylcarbonate in high-temperature liquid water, both with and without added acid or ...
