Unit 4: Esters
Unit 4: Esters. How can you 
make simple esters? 
Heating a mixture of ethanoic acid and ethanol with a 
few drops of concentrated sulfuric acid produces ethyl 
ethanoate 
Ethanoic acid + ethanol -> ethyl ethanoate + water 
CH3COOH + CH3CH2OH -> CH3COOCH2CH3 + H2O 
Starting materials: ethanol and ethanoic acid 
Catalyst: concentrated sulfuric acid 
Conditions: heat 
The concentrated sulfuric acid isn't written into the equation because it is a catalyst and therefore isn't consumed 
in th...

Unit 4: Esters
PopularUnit 4: Esters. How do we draw 
and name ester? 
In order to work out the structure of the ester formed when 
an alcohol and a carboxylic acid react together we start by 
drawing them separately so that their OH groups are next 
to each other 
Then we remove the H and the OH to form water and join 
what's left 
For example: 
H H 
| | 
H - C - C - O - H ETHANOL 
| | 
H H 
and 
H O 
| || 
H - C - C ETHANOIC ACID 
| 
H O - H 
Then the H breaks off the ethanol which becomes ethyl 
and the OH bre...
