Abstract: The present invention relates to A process for enzymatic synthesis of amides of formula (III) from amines of formula (I) and compounds of formula (II). characterized in that the lipase is immobilized on a rotary bed reactor or on a spin-fixed-bed reactor and a Dean-Stark apparatus is used for dehydration.
Abstract: The present invention relates generally to an eco-friendly methodology for the conversion of alcohols and aldehydes to amines and amides using an integrated enzyme cascade system with metal- and organocatalysis. More specifically, the present invention relates to synthesis of capsaicinoids starting from vanillin alcohol and using a combination of an enzyme cascade system and catalysts. Furthermore, the method also relates to synthesis of capsaicinoids derivatives starting from vanillin alcohol derivatives and using a combination of an enzyme cascade system and catalysts.
