Methyl glycoside oleic acid polyester was successfully prepared from methyl glycosides and methyl oleate by emulsion interesterification in the presence of methyl fructoside oleic acid polyester as an emulsifier. Emulsion interesterification process was optimized to obtain 98% yield of methyl glycoside polyester within $3{\sim}5hr$ at temperatures as relatively low as $90{\sim}150^{\circ}C$ and $20{\sim}200mmHg$ pressure with a five-fold molar ratio of oleic acid methyl ester to methyl glycoside in the presence of 2(w/w)% potassium carbonate and 2O(v/v)% methyl fructoside polyester based on oleic acid methyl ester.
