In this task, we write down the reaction equation for obtaining a given compound.
C2H5COOH + C4H9OH -> C2H5COOC4H9 + H2O.
This reaction is called a dehydration reaction, that is, water is chipped off. A carboxylic acid compound, which is called propionic acid, enters the reaction, reacts with butanol (alcohol), as a result, a compound propionic acid butyl ester is formed. This reaction takes place under the action of concentrated sulfuric acid.
