Polymerisation of 10-hydroxydecanoic acid with the lipase from Candida cylindracea

Abstract

A polyester of 10-hydroxydecanoic acid 1 has been efficiently prepared by the incubation of the monomer in hexane and 3 Å molecular sieves at 55°C with the lipase from Candida cylindracea. The polymer is on average a 52-mer(M[> with combining macron]n= 9346 and Mr= 12 065) and has a polydispersity of 1.29.
