Explore the fascinating chemistry behind one of the most powerful compounds known, nitroglycerin, starting from a surprising source: vegetable oil. This video breaks down the complete transformation ...

This work investigates the kinetics of the enantioselective transesterification of ethyl butyrate and (R)-2-pentanol in a solventless medium biocatalyzed by Novozym435, an immobilized Candida ...

This work presents the results of a supercritical transesterification process of soybean oil using methanol, performed in a laboratory high pressure semi-batch reactor. A full description of the ...

Generative A.I. Arrives in the Gene Editing World of CRISPR Much as ChatGPT generates poetry, a new A.I. system devises blueprints for microscopic mechanisms that can edit your DNA.

Furthermore, the transesterification process involved in second-generation biodiesel production, particularly with enzymes like lipases or acyltransferases, enhances efficiency and selectivity, ...

Green biosynthesis of rare DHA-phospholipids by lipase-catalyzed transesterification with edible algal oil in solvent-free system and catalytic mechanism study ...

Therefore, the kinetics of lipase-catalyzed transesterification to citronellyl acetate in this ionic liquid is a ping-pong double-double reaction mechanism inhibited by citronellyl acetate.

Upon finishing the transesterification process, a minor increase in heating was implemented for the removal of excess methanol, and suspended solid catalysts were removed by allowing the solution to ...
