(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: For the given compound, the carboxylic acid and the alcohol from which it is formed by the Fischer esterification have to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

  • Fischer esterification is the conversion of carboxylic acids into ester on treatment with alcohol in the present of an acid catalyst.
  • The reactants such as carboxylic acid and alcohol can be identified from the saponification of ester.
  • Saponification of ester: It is the reaction in which ester is treated with sodium hydroxide and a water molecule to give carboxylic acid and alcohol as products.
