Lipase-Catalyzed Synthesis of Cetyl Palmitate in the Presence of n-Hexane and Ethyl Ether

Figure 2

Experimental conditions are presented in Table 2 (open lozenges). The region above the dashed line includes the experimental conditions where it is guaranteed that the reagents (molar ratio of palmitic acid to cetyl palmitate of 1 : 1) are completely soluble in the solvent.
