    acetic acid and Isopentyl Alcohol‚ using a strong acid as a catalyst. The product was washed‚ and distilled. This approach is called Fisher esterification‚ whereby esters are produced by the esterification of a Carboxylic acid where it is heated with an alcohol in the presence of a strong acid which acts as a catalyst. The ester produced had a banana flavor. The extraction of the crude product was conducted using sodium bicarbonate followed by distillation. The resulting product obtained was

Then‚ ketene was reacted with a chiral and nonracemic (S)-ethyl lactate produces a mixture of diasteromeric esters of ibuprofen derivatives where (S) configuration is predominantly. Finally‚ hydrolysis of the ester then provides (S)-ibuprofen in a relatively high yield. all reaction were monitored by TLC at room temperature with appropriate solvent system which states in experiment section.

    Submitted: September 13‚ 2012 ------------------------------------------------- Abstract Carboxylic acid derivatives namely‚ acyl halides‚ acid anhydrides‚ esters and amides were classified through different reactivity tests. The samples used were acetyl chloride for acyl halide group‚ acetic anhydride for acid anhydride group‚ ethyl acetate for ester group‚ acetamide and benzamide for amide group. These derivatives were identified through the mechanism of hydrolysis‚ alcoholysis and aminolysis reactions

    Flor‚ Lu‚ Ricardo‚ Magdurulan‚ Tricia 2Biology6‚ Department of Biology‚ College of Science‚ UST‚ Manila annalesaca@yahoo.com Abstract Esters are a type of functional group that causes distinguishable flavors or odors of some fruits. It can be synthesized by Fischer reaction‚ which is an acid-catalyzed reaction of an alcohol and carboxylic acid. One of the esters known for its characteristic banana flavor is the isoamyl acetate. By using Fischer reaction‚ Isoamyl acetate was produced by refluxing

    Acid Mandy Boyle Chem 213‚ Section 002 Due Date: December 3‚ 2009 I. Introduction People encounter esters everyday in both natural and synthesized forms. Esters are present in a variety of common compounds‚ from fragrances to animal fat (McMurry‚ 2008). Although these esters can undergo many different important reactions‚ this lab is particularly interested in the hydrolysis of esters into carboxylic acids and alcohols. Companies such as Dove‚ Palmolive‚ Dial‚ and many others owe their success

    through the Fisher esterification method by combining isopentyl alcohol with acetic and sulfuric acid then heating the mixture under reflux for an hour. Esterification is a chemical reaction in which two reactants (an alcohol and an acid) form an ester as the reaction product. Observations and Data: When the sulfuric acid was combined with the isopentyl alcohol and acetic acid‚ the mixture turned red (due to residue of another chemical remaining on glassware). During the wash of the organic

    chemist to derive functional groups and isolate unknown compounds that can verify and identify unknown compounds often obtained through academic and commercial laboratory research projects. INTRODUCTION The actual conversion of carboxylic acid to esters using an acid catalyst and an alcohol was given the name Fischer esterification after the German chemist‚ Emil Fischer (1). The basic mechanism for this reaction is shown below in Fig. 1 (5). The reaction begins with the transfer of a proton from
