What else can I help you with?
Can you draw a carboxylic acid that results from the hydrolysis of glyceryl tributyrate?
CH3-(CH2)2-CO-OH with a double bond between the carbon and oxygen (the carbon and the alcohol is a single bond).
Is ether a compound formed from compounding a carboxylic and an alcohol?
No, ether is not formed from compounding a carboxylic acid and an alcohol. Ethers are compounds formed by the reaction of two alkyl or aryl groups with an oxygen atom linking them together. Carboxylic acids react with alcohols to form esters, not ethers.
What ester is formed when isopropyl alcohol and butyric acid react?
Isopropyl butyrate (or isopropyl butanoate under IUPAC).
How do carboxylic acids and esters differ in odor in chemical structure?
Carboxylic acids typically have a sour or rancid odor due to the presence of the carboxyl group, which is responsible for the acidic properties. Esters, on the other hand, have more pleasant and fruity odors because of their structure, which is derived from a carboxylic acid and an alcohol. The ester functional group gives rise to these more desirable scents.
What is the mechanism of the BH3-THF reaction with carboxylic acids?
The BH3-THF reaction with carboxylic acids involves the formation of an intermediate complex between BH3-THF and the carboxylic acid, followed by the reduction of the carboxylic acid to an alcohol.
Is Butyl Alcohol a reactants used to make methyl butyrate?
the reactants are methanol and butyric acid
What are the products of an ester and water?
The products of a reaction between an ester and water are an alcohol and a carboxylic acid. This reaction is known as hydrolysis and involves the breaking of the ester bond, which results in the formation of the alcohol and carboxylic acid molecules.
Can you draw a carboxylic acid that results from the hydrolysis of glyceryl tributyrate?
CH3-(CH2)2-CO-OH with a double bond between the carbon and oxygen (the carbon and the alcohol is a single bond).
What is the product of isopropyl alcohol and butyric acid?
isopropyl butyrate or isopropyl butanoate
What are the products of esters?
a carboxylic acid + an alcohol
Is ether a compound formed from compounding a carboxylic and an alcohol?
No, ether is not formed from compounding a carboxylic acid and an alcohol. Ethers are compounds formed by the reaction of two alkyl or aryl groups with an oxygen atom linking them together. Carboxylic acids react with alcohols to form esters, not ethers.
What product contains carboxylic acid?
reducing a carboxylic acid directly forms an aldehyde, but further reduction forms a primary alcohol reducing a ketone forms a secondary alcohol oxidation reverses these processes primary alcohol -> aldehyde -> carboxylic acid secondary alcohol -> ketone
What happens when alcohol has been oxidised?
oxidation of alcohol results in the formation of various carbonyl compounds, depending upon the structure of alcohol. For example, oxidation of secondary alcohol results in the formation of ketone, while that of primary alcohol forms aldehyde and further oxidation forms carboxylic acids.
What ester is formed when isopropyl alcohol and butyric acid react?
Isopropyl butyrate (or isopropyl butanoate under IUPAC).

When a primary alcohol is strongly oxidized the product?
The product of the oxidation of a primary alcohol is a carboxylic acid.
What is the mechanism of the BH3-THF reaction with carboxylic acids?
The BH3-THF reaction with carboxylic acids involves the formation of an intermediate complex between BH3-THF and the carboxylic acid, followed by the reduction of the carboxylic acid to an alcohol.
