alpha-Tocopheryl ferulate (alpha-TF) can be used as an antioxidant in both lipid containing food and cosmetics. The ability of lipases to catalyze the transesterification between alpha-tocopherol and ethyl ferulate (EF) was investigated. Only the lipase B from Candida antarctica and the lipase from Candida rugosa catalyzed the transesterification. The influences of reaction condition on the yield of alpha-TF were investigated. A yield of 25.2% of alpha-TF was obtained using 5:1 mole ratio of alpha-tocopherol to EF in solvent-free medium at 72h. The yield of alpha-TF was further enhanced by applying vacuum-rotary evaporation procedure to remove the co-product ethanol.
