Carboxylic add esters

Carboxylic acid esters have been studied widely and detailed mechanisms have been worked out for these reactions. Equation (4) shows the overall reaction of a carboxylic add ester with hydroxide via the nucleophilic attack of hydroxide at the carbonyl oxygen, with the subsequent loss of the alcohol moiety (HOR). Esters generally have larger ly, than kH+ values, with the result that they hydrolyze by base-promoted reactions at pH 5-6 (Mabey and Mill, 1978). 

Based on this order of reactivity, more reactive acyl compounds (acid chlorides and anhydrides) can be converted to less reactive ones (carboxylic adds, esters, and amides). The reverse is not usually true.

Lipids are long chain (C12-C30) biological hydrocarbons that have a single functional group, such as a carboxylic add, ester, or alcohol, at one end of the chain. Several methods can be considered for separating lipids from the plant or animal cells in which they are found. Candidate processes include these ...

In 2000, Ube Industries, Ltd. discovered tertiary carboxylic add esters, such as methyl 2,2-dimethylpropanoate (157), ethyl 2,2-dimelhylpropanoale (158), butyl 2,2-dimethylpropanoate (159), and hexyl 2,2-dimethylpropanoate (160) [35]. 

In the radiolysis of aliphatic carboxylic acids, carboxylic add esters and amides preferred formation of a-carboxyalkyl type radicals (e.g., R CH COOR) are observed. 

The reaction of olefins and their functional derivatives with carbon monoxide and alcohols to saturated carboxylic add esters generally proceeds at a lower velocity than the formation of the free acids as illustrated in the last chapter [504]. In the presence of nickel halogenide catalysts, reaction temperatures between 180-200 °C and pressures from 100 to 200 atm are required. Yields are in the range of 90 %. With cobalt catalysts reaction temperatures between 140 to 170 °C are recommended [505].
