Esterification is when two reactants basically form an ester in the end. But you knew that. A common one is called the Fischer esterification, which is when excess/xs alcohol reacts with a carboxylic acid in (other) acid. ... Under these conditions, the regular alcohol can act as a good nucleophile.
