Concept Introduction:
Acyl transfer reaction is the one in which the acyl group is transferred from one molecule to another molecule. This reaction occurs very frequently in biological systems. Some of the acyl group containing compounds are carboxylic acid, acid chlorides, acid anhydrides etc. General reaction scheme for acyl transfer reaction can be given as shown below,
(b)
Interpretation:
Condensed structural formula of the carboxylic acid and ester formed when ethanoic anhydride reacts with 2-butanol has to be drawn.
