ABSTRACT: 1,3-Diacylglycerol preparation has roused increasing attention in recent years as the 1,3-diacylglycerol-rich oils can suppress the deposition of visceral fat and prevent the body weight increasing. Lipozyme TL IM-mediated esterification of oleic acid with monoolein was effective for 1,3-diacylglycerol production. During the esterification process, the solvent shows obvious influence on the diolein synthesis as well as the 1,3-diolein production. This work investigated the related kinetics and mechanism of the solvent effect on the esterification and Lipozyme TL IM performance. The results indicated that both the esterification rate constant and the acyl migration rate constant positively correlated with the logP of the solvent, while the site specificity of lipase has negative correlation with solvent logP. The acylation toward the 2-position of 1-monoolein was more sensitive to the solvent logP compared to the 1-position of glycerides. Molecular dynamics simulation revealed that solvents with different logP influenced the structure of Lipozyme TL IM including RMSD, hydrogen bond, and radial distribution function to a large extent, which subsequently led to the catalytic activity and selectivity variation of the lipase.
