Lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus (TLL) has been immobilized on a methacrylate macroporous resin coated with octadecyl groups (Purolite Lifetech®® ECR8806F). This immobilization protocol gave biocatalyst significantly higher stability than that obtained using octyl agarose. To further improve the features, we tried to covalently immobilize enzyme this support. For purpose, support was activat...

In this work, an efficient synthesis of 3-hydroxy chromones was accomplished through oxidative cyclization mediated by lipase. This enzymatic process has salient features environmental friendliness, mild reaction condition, satisfactory yield, green reusable biocatalyst, and short time. The proposed method expands the application lipase in organic synthesis.
