Abstract
Ammoniolysis of triglycerides to the corresponding fatty acid amides i
s efficiently catalysed by Candida antarctica lipase (Novozym 435). Th
us, olive oil gave 90% of nearly pure oleamide after 72 h at 60 degree
s C. Jojoba wax was similarly converted into a mixture of cis-11-eicos
enamide and erucamide together with cis-11-eicosenol and cis-13-docose
nol.
