Formation of Esters.
Odor of ester
Chemical Equation:
I
ketone
aldehyde
alcohol
amine
carboxylic acid
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:
