The enzymatic esterification of natural phenolic antioxidants such as cinnamic acid and benzoic acid derivatives, with aliphatic alcohols, monosaccharides as well as alkylglucosides, using various lipases and esterases in non-aqueous media, was investigated. Reaction rate and esterification yield seems to be linked to the structural characteristics of the substrates (aromatic acids and alcohols or sugars) used.
