Presentation Transcript
Write condensed structural formulas for and name esters. • Include: uses and functions of common esters • Additional KEY Terms • esterification
carbonyl group O alkoxy group R O C O • The functional group of esters is the ester group • general formula: R–COOR' • R- hydrocarbon chain from the acid • R' - hydrocarbon chain from the alcohol. • made by combiningcarboxylic acid and alcohol R'
Esterification O H H ester O C-C O-C alcohol carboxyl acid DE-esterification Esterification is a reversible reaction. water
O R O O C • Properties of Esters: • Polar covalent: < 5C (small) are soluble in water • Strong IMF (d-d)gives high bp/mp • But lower than alcohol/acids – NO H-bonding • Large esters account for flavour / odor of fruit EsterOdor isoamylacetate banana methyl salicylate wintergreen ethyl butyrate pineapple benzyl butyrate cherry benzyl acetate peach methyl butyrate apple octylacetate orange n-propyl acetate pear ethyl phenylacetate honey ethyl acetate fingernail polish remover δ- δ+ R'
Naming Esters O // CH3-C \ O-CH2CH2CH3 2 – names: · First name alcohol: change- anolto - yl · Second name acid: change- ioc acid to - oate CH3COOCH2CH2CH3 alcohol acid propylethanoate
