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

Abstract: Saponification is an esterification process that is used to make so from the hydrolysis of fats and oils. This process have the glycerol molecule‚ and a sodium carboxylate salt in most case sodium stearate being formed‚ however this salt depends on the base being used. In the experiment 23ml of vegetable oil was mixed with 20ml of ethyl alcohol along with 20 ml of 25% sodium hydroxide in a 250-mL Erlenmeyer flask. The content was then heated on a water bath whilst gently mixing with

esterification. In this experiment‚ the carboxyl group of the acetic acid joins with the hydroxyl group of the isopently alcohol‚ catalyzed by the presence of sulfuric acid‚ through a dehydration reaction‚ in which water is removed. This allows for an ester bond to form in the second carbon of the isopentyl acetate (banana oil). Esterification of the acetic acid with isopentyl alcohol is the reaction‚ which prepared the banana oil . The ultimate goal of this experiment to synthesize the artificial
