Abstract
Pseudomonas cepacia lipase supported on ceramic particles (PS-C) offers a s imple alternative route for the synthesis of achiral half esters, with very high yields, easy work up and remarkable substrate selectivity, as it clea ves only phenolic esters having a phenyl group (i.e. C6H5-O-CO-C6H5).
