Q. A carboxylic acid ester is prepared commonly by reacting a carboxylic acid with excess of an alcohol in the presence of a small quantity of a strong acid such as

c o n c . H_{2} S O_{4}

as a catalyst. The reaction is reversible and generally the equilibrium constant for the esterification is close to

1

. As it is a reversible reaction, different methods are used to increase the yield of ester. It is established that the mechanism of esterification under such conditions involves initial protonation of the acid followed by the attack of the alcohol as a nucleophile.
