HNMR analysis on Fischer esterification
In the reaction of acetic acid with an unknown alcohol in the presence of an acid catallyst, an ester and water are made. If a small aliquot of the reaction mixture were taken and added to CDCl3 , what information could be retrieved by this NMR?
triplet around 4.1ppm integrates for 3
triplet around 3.75 ppm integrates for 2
singlets around 2.1 ppm integrate for a total of 7.5
other peaks are irrelevant.
State the molar ratios of these compounds in the form of alcohol:ester:acid
