Application of ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents to lipase-catalyzed butyl acetate synthesis

Uspostavljanje novih visokoučnikovitih i održivih procesa proizvodnje industrijski važnih kemikalija predmet je mnogih znanstvenih istraživanja u području kemijske tehnologije i biotehnologije. Stoga se ionske kapljevine i eutektična otapala, nova generacija nehlapljivih i stabilnih otapala, posljednjih godina intenzivno proučavaju kao zamjena za tradicionalna i škodljiva otapala u procesima organske sinteze i biokatalize. U okviru ovog rada ispitana je mogućnost primjene ionskih kapljevina i eutektičnog otapala u lipazom kataliziranoj sintezi butil-acetata, estera od indutrijskog značaja.Establishment of new highly productive and sustainable processes for the production of industrially important compounds is becoming a growing area of research in the field of chemical technology and biotechnology. Therefore, the use of ionic liquids and eutectic solvents as possible replacement for conventional molecular solvents for biocatalytic and organic reactions has recently been the subject of considerable attention. Within this work cholinium-based ionic liquids and eutectic solvents were prepared and tested as solvents for lipase-catalyzed butyl-acetate synthesis
