    This document outlines various chemical reactions involving carboxylic acids and related functional groups. It shows that carboxylic acids can be reduced to aldehydes using lithium aluminum hydride and converted to esters using acid catalysis. Aldehydes and ketones can both be reduced to alcohols using lithium aluminum hydride. Higher alcohols can be dehydrated to alkenes using acid catalysts.
