Abstract
An investigation on Mucor miehei lipase-catalyzed transesterifications of 16 aromatic and heteroaromatic esters in organic solvents is descr ibed. The points studied were the activity and regioselectivity of the enzyme-catalyzed reaction of either one or two ester groups situated in different positions on several heterocyclic systems with an aliphat ic alcohol. The reactions took place in moderate to good yields and, i n some cases, regioselectively.
