Esters and water are formed when alcohols react with carboxylic acids. This reaction is called esterification, which is a reversible reaction. This type of reaction is called a condensation reaction, which means that water molecules are eliminated during the reaction.

The conditions for esterification are as follow:

- concentrated sulfuric acid as catalyst

- reflux at 180°C

E.g. reaction of ethanol and ethanoic acid to form ethyl ethanoate and water

C2H5OH + CH3COOH ⇆ CH3COOC2H5 + H2O

another example is the reaction of ethanoic acid and propanol to form propyl ethanoate and water.
