Abstract It has been demonstrated that Lipozyme® TL IM (Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase immobilised on silica) can selectively deacylate the ester function involving the C-5′ hydroxyl group of α-anomers over the other acyl functions of anomeric mixture of peracylated O-aryl α, β-D-ribofuranoside. The analysis of results of biocatalytic deacylation reaction revealed that the reaction time decreases with the increase in the acyl chain ...
