Concept introduction:
Carboxylic acid and alcohol reacts to form an ester when the reaction proceeds under acidic condition. This type of reaction is known as esterification reaction. If the carboxylic group and alcohol are present in the same hydrocarbon, then cyclic ester is formed. The cylic ester is known as lactone. In the presence of acid, ester and alcohol forms transester. This type of reaction is called transesterification reaction.
