Sucrose-6-acetate is an important intermediate in the preparation of sucralose (a finest sweetener). In our study, Candida rugosa lipase coated with surfactant was firstly immobilized on sol–gel supports. Then, the immobilized enzyme was used in the regioselective synthesis of sucrose-6-acetate by transesterification of sucrose and vinyl acetate. The screening results revealed that Tween 80 was an ideal surfactant to coat lipase immobilized in sol–gel and exhibited the highest yield of sucrose-6-acetate. Other factors that influenced the yield during the preparation process were also studied. Under optimal conditions, the yield of sucrose-6-acetate could reach up to 78.68 %, while free lipase was easily inactivated in polar solvent. Thermal and operational stabilities were also improved significantly. Surfactant-coated lipase immobilized in sol–gel remained stable when the temperature was higher than 60 °C. Moreover, they could maintain high catalytic activity after six recycles. This strategy is economical, convenient and promising for the food industry.
