Question
Chapter 16, Problem 16.105EP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
In terms of “acid part” and “alcohol part”, the ester flavoring agents which generate pineapple and apple flavor has to be contrasted structurally.
Concept Introduction:
Esters are mainly responsible for the fragrance and flavor of flowers and fruits. A natural flavor is caused by mixture of esters in which one particular ester being a dominant one.

Students have asked these similar questions
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:
