They vary - but nearly always involve reflux followed by removal of water often with the aid of an azeotropic solvent. An acid catalyst such as concentrated sulfuric acid is often employed but titanates and other catalysts have also been used.
Esters do not react with sodium carbonate under normal conditions because esters are relatively stable compounds and do not readily undergo chemical reactions with mild bases like sodium carbonate. If a reaction were to occur, it would likely require more drastic conditions or a catalyst.
Such compounds are mostly esters.
Esters are neutral compounds
Fats are esters of fatty acids and glycerin (propane-1,2,3-triol).
Yes they have if they are esters of Carboxylic acids. Eg: Methyl acetate has carbonyl in its middle : H3C-(C=O)-O-CH3

The formation of esters aims to create compounds that are often used in various applications, such as flavoring agents, fragrances, and solvents. Esters are formed through a reaction between an alcohol and a carboxylic acid, typically in the presence of an acid catalyst. This reaction not only produces esters but also releases water, making it a condensation reaction. The properties of esters make them valuable in both industrial and consumer products.
Probably when you take a sugar with alcohol components (-OH), turn them into O- ions by using a basic conditions (say NaOH) and then alkalizing them to form esters (say CH3I). That would replace all alcohols with (-OCH3 esters). "esterification of sugars"
Esters are flavorings. They are also used with perfumes.
Esters are compounds that form when organic acids react with alcohols.
Esters are neutral compounds
Esters lack hydrogen atoms attached directly to highly electronegative atoms like oxygen or nitrogen, which are necessary for forming hydrogen bonds. In esters, the hydrogen atoms are bonded to carbon atoms, making them unable to participate in hydrogen bonding with other esters.
Yes, sodium borohydride can reduce esters to alcohols.
