This functional group has an adjacent methylene group inserted in the Arndt-Eistert homologation. A molecule containing this functional group is produced along with phenol in the Dakin reaction. The infrared spectra of them shows three peaks: a strong 1710, a medium 1200, and a strong, broad 2700 peak. A mixture of sulfuric acid and chromium trioxide will convert a primary alcohol to this functional group. Simple, dry heating of them reduces them to an alkane, evolving carbon dioxide. For 10 points, identify this functional group which combines with an alcohol to form an ester in the Fischer e
