ESTER
General formula CnH2n+1COOCmH2m+1
CnH2n + 1C OH + CmH2m+1OH
(carboxilic acid)
(alcohol)
Esterification
- Carboxilic acid reacts with alcohol to produce
ester and water.
- The functional group of ester is carboxilate
group.
- Concetrated sulphuric acid is catalyst.
- Carboxilic acid losses OH and
- Alcohol losses H
- The bond that break up will rejoin again
O

Naming Ester
- Name of ester consists of two parts, the name
of alcohol part is given first and followed by
the acid part.
