Abstract

Biodegradable fumarate oligomers from dimer to tetramer were selectively prepared by the oligomerization of diethyl fumarate using laccase and hydrogen peroxide in various organic solvents. As a typical example, diethyl fumarate was oligomerized using laccase and hydrogen peroxide in ethanol at 60°C for 24 hours to produce the fumarate trimer in 80% yield. Sodium salt of fumarate trimer was biodegraded by the activated sludge.
