Enzymatic synthesis of 6-O-D-glucosyldecanoate in tert-butanol was performed using substrates D-glucose as acyl acceptor and decanoic acid as acyl donor. Candida antarctica lipase B (Novozyme 435) was used as the catalyst in the esterification process. Box Behnken of response surface methodology (RS...
