A simple method for the synthesis of cholesterol esters in high yield
Chemistry and Physics of Lipids
|November 1, 1975
Abstract:
A simple and convenient synthesis of cholesterol esters from cholesterol and fatty acid anhydrides is described. The high, reproducible yield of cholesterol ester and the small excess of fatty acid used makes this method attractive for the preparation of cholesterol esters using difficultly obtained fatty acids.
