https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ms-275.html The enzymatic synthesis of alkyl ferulates is an important reaction in cosmetic and pharmaceutical chemistries, since it may allow to expand the biorefinery concept valorizing biomass wastes enriched in ferulic acid. However, robust biocatalysts for that purpose are scarce. Herein, we have immobilized the type A feruloyl esterase from Aspergillus niger (AnFaeA) as cross-linked enzyme aggregates, employing chitosan as co-feeder (ChCLEAs). High immobilization yields and relative activity recovery were attained in all assessed conditions (> 93%). Furthermore, we enhanced the thermal stability of the soluble enzyme 32-fold. AnFaeA-ChCLEAs were capable to quantitatively perform the solvent-free direct esterification of short- to medium-chain alkyl ferulates (C4-C12) in less than 24 h. By raising the operational temperature to 50 °C, AnFaeA-ChCLEAs transformed 350 mM ferulic acid into isopentyl ferulate with a space-time yield of 46.1 g of product × L-1 × day-1, 73-fold higher than previously reported. The overall sustainability of this alkyl ferulate production bioprocess is supported by the high total turnover number (TTN 7 × 105) and the calculated green metrics (E factor = 30). Therefore, we herein present a robust, efficient, and versatile heterogeneous biocatalyst useful for the synthesis of a wide diversity of alkyl ferulates. KEY POINTS • CLEAs of feruloyl esterase A from A. niger using chitosan as co-feeder were obtained. • Microenvironment of the biocatalysts allowed to obtain C1 to C18 alkyl ferulates. • Biocatalyst at boundary conditions showed a high productivity of 46 g/L day.
