Chemistry Organic Building Blocks Esters
In chemistry, an ester is a compound that is formed by the replacement of the hydrogen atom (H) of at least one acidic hydroxyl group (−OH) of an acid, whether organic or inorganic, with an organyl group (−R).
Esters can be synthesized from oxoacids, such as acetic acid, carbonic acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, nitric acid, and xanthic acid, as well as from acids that lack oxygen, such as thiocyanic acid and trithiocarbonic acid.
Esters are known to react vigorously with strong oxidizing acids, leading to potentially violent reactions that can result in the ignition of both the esters and the reaction products due to the release of heat. Esters also generate heat when they come into contact with alkali solutions. Additionally, esters can produce highly flammable hydrogen gas when mixed with alkali metals and ionic hydrides.
