Process for the enzymatic synthesis of pyroglutamic esters

A process for the preparation of compounds according to the general formula (I), in which R is a hydrocarbon radical of an alcohol, wherein one or more alcohols of the general formula (II) [in-line-formulae]R—OH??(II)[/in-line-formulae] in which R is as defined above, are esterified and/or transesterified without using significant amounts of solvents, preferably without solvents, preferably under reduced pressure at temperatures below 100° C. in the presence of enzymes from the class of hydrolases with a compound according to the general formula (III), in which R1 is either hydrogen or a linear or branched alkyl or alkenyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms is provided.
