Abstract
The transesterification of 1 M divinyladipate with 0.25 M glucose in dimeth ylformamide (DMF) catalyzed by 5 mg ml(-)1 alkaline protease (24 units mg(- 1) min(-1)) from Streptomyces sp. gave 6-O-vinyladipoyl D-glucose as the ma in product with yields are between 60 and 90%. The optimum temperature for the reaction was about 50 degrees C.
