One of the strategies has been well established enzymatic synthesis of an ester bond. The other strategy excluded the biocatalyst and only used a mixture of two organic solvents as the reaction media, 2-methyl-2-butanol / dimethyl sulfoxide or tert-butanol / dimethyl sulfoxide for the production of D-fructose-oleic acid ester. Ester products obtained were characterised by using FT-IR, NMR, by MS. Product yield was also assessed by HPLC. Results of structural analyses and yield measurement indicated that two approaches produced almost identical ester products.en10.5650/jos.ess20142info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessfructoseoleic acidsugar-fatty acid esterificationtert-butanol2-methyl-2-butanoldimethyl sulfoxideArticle691012851281329081002-s2.0-85092249238Q3WOS:000582396400012Q3
