23 Ιαν 2023 · Esters are derived from carboxylic acids. A carboxylic acid contains the -COOH group, and in an ester the hydrogen in this group is replaced by a hydrocarbon group. This could be an alkyl group like methyl or ethyl, or one containing a benzene ring such as a phenyl or benzyl group. The most commonly discussed ester is ethyl ethanoate.

discuss the wide occurrence of esters in nature, and their important commercial uses, giving one example of an ester linkage in nature, and one example of a commercially important ester. write an equation to describe the hydrolysis of an ester under acidic or basic conditions.
Esters are among the most widespread of all naturally occurring compounds. Many simple esters are pleasant-smelling liquids that are responsible for the fragrant odors of fruits and flowers. For example, methyl butanoate is found in pineapple oil, and isopentyl acetate is a constituent of banana oil.
Ester, any of a class of organic compounds that react with water to produce alcohols and organic or inorganic acids. Esters derived from carboxylic acids are the most common. Learn about the different types and reactions of esters and more in this article.
3 Αυγ 2022 · The hydrogen ion and hydroxide ion bond together to form a water molecule. For example, ethanol and ethanoic acid will react in the presence of a sulphuric acid catalyst, to produce the ester ethyl ethanoate and water.
What are esters? Esters are derived from carboxylic acids. A carboxylic acid contains the -COOH group, and in an ester the hydrogen in this group is replaced by a hydrocarbon group of some kind. This could be an alkyl group like methyl or ethyl, or one containing a benzene ring like phenyl. A common ester - ethyl ethanoate
In chemistry, an ester is a functional group derived from an acid (organic or inorganic) in which the hydrogen atom (H) of at least one acidic hydroxyl group (−OH) of that acid is replaced by an organyl group (R ′). Analogues derived from oxygen replaced by other chalcogens belong to the ester category as well. [1]
