Fatty alcohol synthesis from fatty acids at mild temperature by subsequent enzymatic esterification and metal-catalyzed hydrogenation

Fatty alcohols are important products in chemical industry to be used in the formulation of surfactants and lubricants. This work describes a two step approach for the production of myristyl alcohol under neat conditions by combining a lipase catalyzed esterification of myristic acid and myristyl al...
