General description

Vinyl laurate acts as an acyl donor during the transeterification of L-α-glycerophosphorylcholine (GPC) in the presence of Candida antarctica lipase B as catalyst to form lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC).

Application

Vinyl laurate can be used to synthesize the following:
  • sucrose laurate esters from sucrose in organic solvents
  • poly(vinyl laurate) (PVL)latexes
  • porous conducting ‘‘soft′′ polymer foams which can be used as gas sensors
