Scenario: You are working in a chemistry lab that makes food additives and you are tasked with preparing 9.50 grams of butyl acetate for candy production. You know that esters can be prepared using Fischer esterification, and so choose to use that method to synthesize your target compound.
Your reaction mixture is set up as follows: Add the alcohol (1.0 equivalent), carboxylic acid (1.3 equivalents) and H2SO4 (0.35 equivalents) to the Erlenmeyer flask. (Note that H2SO4 is an 18 M solution).
Enter all numerical values accurate to three significant figures.
Enter the appropriate symbol for the units.
Quantity of the alcohol:
Quantity of the carboxylic acid:
Quantity of H2SO4:

Combinatorial Chemistry: Ester Synthesis In today's lab, you will perform small scale Fischer esterifications to make a variety of esters. H2SO4 R OH + R'OH = ROR Combinatorial chemistry is a term used to describe small scale reactions, where in a large number of different molecules can be made using the same reaction conditions, by varying the reactants. In the case of Fischer esterifications, one can vary the carboxylic acid and keep the alcohol constant or keep the carboxylic acid...

Experiment #6 Ester Synthesis PRE-LAB ASSIGNMENT This pre-lab assignment is worth 5 points for this Experiment and should be completed on a separate page and turned in at the beginning of lab. 1. Read the experiment carefully 2. Safety Considerations: Summarize O safety and health hazards for working with glacial acetic acid, butanoic acid and petroleum ether. 3. Procedure: Summarize the procedure using a bullet list. Assume you are summarizing the procedure to a fully qualified chemist, i.e. don't include...

1) Which reactant, salicylic acid or acetic anhydride, is in
excess? Show your work.
2) If you were to use 3.17 g of starting material, how much
product would you expect? Again, show your work.
3) Why is phosphoric acid added to the reaction?
4) A small amount of water is added at the end of the reaction
to react with the excess acetic anhydride. Show a balanced equation
for that reaction.
5) Explain the purpose of the FeCl3 test...
