Carboxylic Acids and Esters EXPERIMENT 22 OBSERVATIONS AND RESULTS Synthesis and Identification of an Ester: Esterification...
EXPERIMENT 20 CSI: SMU Part 2. Synthesis of an Ester. Esters are compounds of the form RCOOR'. They occur naturally in many plants and animals, and can be synthesized. They have a pleasant aroma usually described as "fruity of flowery". In a Fisher esterification an ester is formed from the reaction of a carboxylic acid and an alcohol with a strong acid as a catalyst. The OH contained in the carboxylic acid group 1s replaced with the alkoxy group (O-R")...

Q1. Complete the generalized complete word equation for an esterification reaction: Carboxylic acid + alcohol → 2 marks Q2. During an esterification reaction, why do we reflux, rather than heat, the solution and what is the role of the condenser? 2 marks Q3. () What is the technical term used for forming an ester from starting materials? (ii) What is the term for the reverse reaction? 1 mark Q4. The esterification process using a carboxylic acid is a reversible reaction,...
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...
A: Esterification ive: To make three common esters and to note their characteristic odour and to draw structural diagrams representing each reactions. Set up a 400 mL beaker and apparatus like the example on the front lab bench. Fill the beaker approximately 2/3 full of water to serve as a hot bath. For each of the carboxylic acid- alcohol pair of chemicals below, complete the following Note that the carboxylic acid may be a crystal or a solution. 1. Carefully...
REPORT SHEET Date Esters Name Partner Answer all of the following: 1. Name any three of the esters formed in this experiment: Carboxylic Acid Alcohol Name of Ester 2. Why are artificial flavors and/or odors not quite the "real thing?" 3. Although we did not make it, methyl butanoate has the scent of apples. Identify the two substances you would use to synthesize this compound. 4. In the saponification reaction, when HCl was added in procedure #6, a solid should...

We made esters from carboxylic acids and alcohol. (for one of them, acetic acid + isopentyl alcohol + couple drops of sulfuric acid). Could someone please explain those. Thank you 1. Consider if we had prepared high molecular weight esters, what problems would this pose regarding our method of analysis 2. We used sulfuric acid as a catalyst, but carboxylic acids are a reagent in this reaction. Would simply using excess carboxylic acid work as efficiently as sulfuric acid to...
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 constant and...
