After the purification‚ the ester yield synthesised is only 67%-70% and a maximum 70% yield of ester usually is not considered to be acceptable for a synthesis reaction‚ instead it is considering as a poor yield of ester. The synthesised ester can only have a maximum yield of 70% because for ester in which the carboxylic acid and alcohol are sterically unhindered‚ a same ratio mixture of carboxylic acid and alcohol can only synthesis ester with a maximum yield of 70% ester as the reaction with the
