Amyl Acetate is formed from 1-pentanol and acetic acid. This smells like bananas
The reaction for 1-pentanol and acetic acid produces amyl acetate as a condensate. This ester has the chemical formula of CH3COO[CH2]4CH3.
This is an esterification reaction that produces pentyl ethanoate as its product. If I remember correctly, pentyl ethanoate smells of pear drops. The general rule here is that any alc1ohol will react with any alk2anoic acid to produce the corresponding ester alk1yl alk2anoate. Oh, and it's pentan-1-ol btw, not 1-pentanol.
Acetic acid (ethanoic acid) CH3COOH
2-butanol (sec-butanol) and acetic acid (ethanoic acid) will undergo condensation reaction. The hydroxy group on the butanol reacts with the carboxyl group on the acetic acid to form an ester, releasing water. The product is sec-butyl-ethanoate.

Octyl Acetate
If formed by esterification from pentanol and acetic acid it would be C5H11OH + CH3COOH (plus acid catalyst)------> C5H11OOCCH3 + H2O
1-pentanol
There are two functional groups: 1. Carboxyl group 2. Ester group
Acetic acid is an organic acid. It is a carboxylic acid. It has only 1 carbon atom.
methyl acetate is also known as methyl ethanoate which is an ester. hydrolysis of ester will results in carboxylic acid and alcohol. this is an reversible reaction methyl acetate is also known as methyl ethanoate which is an ester. hydrolysis of ester will results in carboxylic acid and alcohol. this is an reversible reaction
Acetic Acid is CH3COOH and so there are 8 atoms in 1 molecule.
