Ester is the condensation product of an Carboxylic acid and alcohol in organic chemistry.In condensation two molecules combine such that the eleimination of small molecule like water takes place. Or it could be said that ester are dehydration product of alcohol and carboxylic acid. Reaction could be written as : RCOOH (Carboxylic acid) + HO-R' (alcohol) â RCOOR' (Ester ) Esters can be identified by the presence of -COO- linkage in the organic compound.
Esterification. Esterification is a chemical reaction used for making esters. The reaction in which a Caboxylic acid combines with an alcohol in the presence of a catalyst (commonly concentrated sulfuric acid) to form an ester [CH 3 COOC 2 H 5 ] is called Esterificatin reaction. It is a reversible reaction.The esters so formed are fruity in odor. Used to test of carboxylic acid and alcohols. 2  It is also used in polymer industry. 3  This reaction is used in the manufacture of paints, varnishes, lacquers, medicines, dyes, soaps and synthetic rubber. 4  Moreover, chemicals like ether, chloroform and iodoform are made with the help of this particular reaction.
