(a)
Interpretation:
The product of self-condensation of the given ester is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
In the claisen-ester condensation, nucleophilic acyl substitution takes place on an ester. The enolate ion acts as a nucleophile. It attacks the carbonyl carbon to form a tetrahedral intermediate. Acidity of beta-keto ester products is higher than simple

- Ester compounds often have a sweet, pleasant odor. Many characteristic fruit scents are largely due to the natural presence of one or more ester compounds. As such, artificial scents for foods are often composed of complex mixtures of various esters. The exact identity and ratio of ingredients that compose a particular scent are closely guarded secrets in the food and fragrance industry. Suppose that you are a chemist working for a company that i creating a new line of air fresheners. The company is considering three scents: apple, pear, and pineapple. The project manager has asked you to prepare the ester compounds that are largely responsible for these scents. The structural formulas for these ester compounds are shown here: Alcohols for Air Freshener Project Molar mass Density Cost, per (g/mL) Reagent (g/mol) 1.00 L methanol 32.04 0.79 $46.20 ethanol 46.07 0.79 $112.00 1-propanol 60.10 0.80 $72.70 1-butanol 74.12 0.81 $72.60 Use the structural formulas of the alcohols and…arrow_forwardDraw a reaction showing the reactants (the ester and water) and the products (the alcohol and the carboxylic acid) for each ester below.
