Abstract

Six regioisomerically pure structured triacylglycerols possessing a medium-chain fatty acid (C₈, C₁₀ or C₁₂) at the primary positions and pure eicosapentaenoic acid or docosahexaenoic acid at the secondary position of the glycerol moiety were prepared in two steps by a chemoenzymatic approach using lipase.
