Synthesis of Esters with Different Flavors using Fisher Esterification

Among the most manufactured industrial organic chemicals are esters. They are widely used in a variety of household and commercial operations. This study was carried out using Fisher Esterification method to prepare the “Esters” from acids for the synthesis multiple flavors. The different flavors that have different physical properties were synthesized including: Scent of nail polish, spices, banana, pineapple flavor, oil, kiwi, purple flower, apple, pineapple, berries and grapes. Meanwhile, it was observed that when preparing ester flavors from liquid acids, they had a strong and clear smell compared to solid acids, which had a somewhat weak smell.
