We are doing a lab at school with esterfication. We have at our disposal:
Acids: acetic formic maleic tartaric citric benzoic salicylic Alcohols i-propyl octyl i-pentyl methanol butanol-2 butanol-1 propanol-2 n-propyl ethanol We will be synthesizing the ester of our choice from these. I have found there is little reference for most of the compounds that can be formed. Could someone post other esters of interests that can be formed from these combinations. So far, I have found: propyl ethanoate- pear pentyl ethanate- banana ethyl butanoate- pineapple methyl salicylate- wintergreen pentyl butanoate- apricot/strawberry octyl acetate- oranges octyl salicylate- used for sunscreen? Thanks in advance for any ideas. |
