Methyl salicylate is a liquid ester that is usually applied externally for the minor joint and muscle pain.
Organic acids and alcohols are reacted (in the presence of a dehydrating agent) to produce esters. And these substances are often recognized by their characteristic odors. In the case here, salicylic acid and methyl alcohol yield methyl salicylate, which is winter-green.
Benzyl salicylate is an ester.
When salicylic acid reacts with methanol , Methyl salicylate (commonly known as Oil of Wintergreen) is formed. The chemical formula of Methyl salicylate is C6H4(OH)COOCH3 , It can also be written as C8H8O3
C6H4(HO)COOCH3i know that's the chemical formula.sorry if this doesn't help.it is actually C7H6O3 (salicylic acid) + CH3OH (methanol) --> C8H8O3(methy salicylate) + H2O
salicylic acid (an acid) is more polar than methyl salicylate (an ester)

Bismuth salicylate C7H5BiO4 Ignoring inactive ingredients, the salicylate salt of bismuth is the active ingredient and also lends the wintergreenish flavor as Methyl salicylate is the main component of wintergreen and is a salt or ester of salicylic acid. The methyl ester is the chief component of oil of wintergreen. Salicylic acid is also the main component of aspirin, chemically known as acetylsalicylic acid, commonly abbreviated as ASA in drug preparations.
Product depends on reaction conditions and quantity of sodium hydroxide used in the reaction. Initially sticky product [sodium salt of methyl salicylate] will form that on heating will effect saponification [hydrolysis of ester] resulting in sodium salicyale.

it when .............. somting and somthing are put togather
almost certainly abietic acid methyl ester
yes
Methyl benzoate, an organic compound, is an ester. It is a colorless liquid that is not soluble in water and has a fruity smells. Some uses for methyl benzoate are as a solvent and a pesticide.
