Background: Benzocaine | | C9H11NO2 | Reaction scheme for Fischer Esterification of p-aminobenzoic acid: Synthesis of Benzocaine.3 In 1890‚ a chemist named Ritsert‚ was the first to synthesis benzocaine and introduced it in the market in 1902. Benzocaine is a pain reliever and has many active over-the-counter ingredients. It is also used as a lubricant and topical anesthetic on intratracheal catheters and pharyngeal and nasal airways to obtund the pharynegeal and tracheal reflexesl.2 Sodium

(banana oil) from the reaction of an alcohol and a carboxylic acid in a process called Fischer esterification (Fischer-Speier esterification). The name‚ banana oil‚ is due to banana odour released by formation of Isopentyl acetate. The alcohol and the carboxylic acid used in this experiment are Isopentyl alcohol and Glacial Acetic Acid. Both the overall reaction of Fischer esterification and the specific Fischer esterification reaction that was carried out in this lab is shown in figure 1. It worth
