Abstract
An attempt of synthesis 2-monolaurin from lauric acid through trilaurin as an intermediate compound has been successfully conducted. Trilaurin has been afforded via esterification reaction of lauric acid and glycerol with yield and purity of 78 and 84% respectively. Ethanolysis reaction of trilaurin using Lipozyme TL IM enzyme resulted in the formation of 2-monolaurin in a yield of 60 % and purity of 97%.
