Step 1 Introduction

International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry(IUPAC) framed guidelines for naming chemical compounds.

Steps involved in naming the Ester compound

Determine the part that came from alcohol, and the part came from the acid(Esters are obtained from acid and alcohol).
The alkyl part came from alcohol, considered as an alkyl substituent, and added as a prefix by replacing -ane in the root name(alkane) with -yl(alkyl).
The alkyl part that came from the acid is named by taking the root name of the primary chain of the carboxylic acid part of ester and replace the -e of the root name (Ex. methane, ethane, etc.) with the suffix -oate(Ex. methanoate, ethanoate, etc.,).
