OpenStudy (anonymous):
its simple, if it says ester synthesis you're making an ester |dw:1358996617565:dw| where R is a random group like methyl, ethyl, etc. and to know the reactives its basically to know the structure of the product and try to break it into 2 known reagents, in this case an alchol (OHgroup) and an a carboxilic acid|dw:1358996828960:dw| and the general reaction|dw:1358996882684:dw|
