Question

Draw the condensed structural or line-angle formula for the ester formed in each of the following reactions:

(a)

(b)

Short answer

(part a)

(part b)

Step-by-step solution

Introduction (part a)

Carboxylic acids are weak acids that reduce basic by releasing hydrogen ion salts. To generate a methyl group having carbonyl group, either carboxyl group of both a carboxyl group is linked to both an aromatic rings. An methyl or benzyl component may engage to the carboxyl member.

Given Information (part a) 

Formation seems to be a procedure wherein the carboxylic acid mixes with such an alcohol that make compounds in the presence of a catalyst.

Explanation (part a) 

(part a) The ester synthesized when reactions given reduced equation:

Given Information (part b) 

Formation seems to be a procedure wherein the carboxylic acid mixes with such an alcohol that make compounds in the presence of a catalyst.

Explanation (part b) 

(part b) The ester synthesized when reactions given reduced equation:
