Abstract
Lipase-catalyzed transesterification reactions yield novel ferulyl-substituted or coumaryl-substituted acylglycerols with properties suitable for use as sunscreen agents having broad spectrum UV protection. These agents have the advantage of being synthesized from natural materials, while providing a value-added use for vegetable oils. They are readily incorporated into standard sunscreen formulations.
