Perform the investigation involving the Synthesis of Esters In this assignment you will determine the esters that would be produced from various carboxylic acids and alcohols. You will be using the following compounds to construct your esters: Ethanol Ethanoic acid HH HO H-C-C-OH HO-C-C-H 11 HH T H 2-propanol Butanoic acid ннно 11 H HOH | | | H-C-C-C-H III HHH H-C-C-C-C-OH III HHH 1-pentanol HHHHH HO-C-C-C-C-C-H | | | | | HHHHH Your Task: 1. Show the condensation reactions between the following carboxylic acids and alcohols, using the structural formulas of the reactants and products. a. ethanoic acid + 2-propanol b. ethanoic acid + 1-pentanol c. butanoic acid + ethanol d. butanoic acid + 2-propanol 2. Using the Internet and/or print resources find of the smells of the following esters: a. propyl ethanoate b. pentyl ethanoate c. ethyl butanoate d. ethyl methanoate
