Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The procedure corresponding to the synthesis of the given esters is to be stated.
Concept introduction: Organic compounds are synthesized through organic reactions. Esters are derivatives of
To determine: The formation of n-octyl acetate.
(b)
Interpretation: The procedure corresponding to the synthesis of the given esters is to be stated.
Concept introduction: Organic compounds are synthesized through organic reactions. Esters are derivatives of carboxylic acids and therefore, synthesized by the reaction of carboxylic acids with alcohols in the presence of an acid catalyst.
To determine: The formation of n-hexyl propionate
