How Are Esters Made?
This post will go through esterification for QCE Chemistry.
4.1.3 – Organic Reactions and Reaction Pathways
- Recall the acid-base properties of carboxylic acids and explain, using equations, that esterification is a reversible reaction between an alcohol and a carboxylic acid
- Recognise and explain, using equations, that:
- Esters and amides are formed by condensation reactions
