EsterificationEsterification
Esterification is a chemical reaction of an acid with an alcohol (R'OH) to form an ester (RCOOR'). Usually esterification refers to reaction between an organic (carboxylic) acid (RCOOH) with an alcohol (R'OH) to form an ester (RCOOR') and water and called Fischer esterification. The chemical reaction for Fischer esterification is given below:
