Preparation of Esters

► Direct esterification of a carboxylic acid with an alcohol (Fischer Esterification)

► Alcoholysis of acid chlorides, anhydrides, or nitriles.

► Reaction of a carboxylic acid salt with an alkyl halide or sulfate.

► Via the trans-esterification reaction.

Reflux
- a method of heating liquid so that
escaping vapor is condensed and
returned to the liquid

- used to heat reaction mixtures


without losing a volatile liquid

- to heat a liquid in a container


with a condenser that catches and
returns escaping vapor

Highlighted Concepts
Extraction
- the method of separating a substance from a mixture by dissolving
one or more of the components in a solvent

Liquid-Liquid Extraction
- the method of separating a substance
from a mixture by dissolving one or more
of the components in a solvent

Separatory funnel
Highlighted Concepts
Drying Agents
- are anhydrous inorganic salts which react
with water to form insoluble hydrates

Salting Out Effect


- addition of organic salts decreases the solubility
of the organic compounds in water thus assisting
in the extraction by organic solvent
