The selectivity of the esterification of sucrose was studied in the case of lipase-catalysed reactions with activated and non-activated acyl donors. Using the lipase Novozym 435, sucrose fatty acid diesters and mixed fatty acid methacrylic acid diesters were obtained in high conversion and selectivity.
