Provide reactants/reagents and solvents that could be used to synthesize these products from an alkyl halide via substitution or elimination.
An esterification and a claisen condensation are the reverse of each other. Write a single equilibrium reaction that is appropriate for both reactions and discuss the experimental conditions that can drive this equilibrium toward one side or the other of this reaction.
The reactions are:
Esterification Reaction: acetic acid is reacted with methanol and sulfuric acid catalyst under heated conditions to produce methyl acetate.
Claisen Condensation: methyl acetate is reacted with water and sulfuric acid catalyst under heated conditions to produce acetic acid
