In a process for the preparation of a compound of general formula (I), wherein R is an organic residue, in particular a linear or branched alkyl group, an aryl group or an alkyl aryl group each of which is optionally substituted with one or more hydroxy, alkyloxy, alkoxy, nitro, amino, alkylamino, sulfoxy, sulfono, amido, halo or carboxy groups, a compound of the general formula (II) R-CO-X-R1, wherein X is an oxygen or nitrogen atom, and R1 has the meaning indicated above for R, or is a hydrogen atom or a carbohydrate residue, is reacted with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of a catalytic antibody raised against an analogue of a transition state of the reaction and capable of binding to said transition state. The catalytic antibody may be used as a component of detergents for the generation of peroxycarboxylic acid bleach during washing or as a catalyst for organic synthesis. |
