Answer 2

Convert ethanol to butyl ethanoate

Synthesis butyl ethanoate by using reagents. But you have to start the conversion from ethanol.

Butyl ethanoate molecule

butyl ethanoate molecule

Preparation of butyl ethanoate

Ethanol has only two carbon atoms. But butyl ethanoate has six carbon atoms in its molecule. So, we can understand we have to do a reaction which will extend the carbon chain. In this problem, we use aldol condensation to extend carbon chain. For aldol condensation, we have to prepare an aldehyde or ketone.

Hope this will help you.
