In one reaction, large cyclic examples of these compounds are synthesized using a 2,4,6-trichlorobenzylchloride catalyst.
In one reaction, large cyclic examples of these compounds are synthesized using a 2,4,6-trichlorobenzylchloride catalyst. Another reaction to synthesize these compounds converts DCC to dicyclohexylurea with DMAP as a catalyst. When two enolizable examples of these compounds are reacted together with a base, the product is a single compound containing this functional group beta to a ketone. Those reactions are named for Yamaguchi, Steglich, and (*) Claisen. The suffix -oate is used to refer to these compounds. The most famous synthesis of these compounds is an acid-catalyzed reflux of a carboxylic acid and an alcohol and is named for Fischer. For 10 points, name these compounds with general formula R-C-O-O-R-prime which are renowned for their fruity smell.

esters [accept "macrolactones" since the Yamaguchi clue is sometimes referred to as a "macrolactonization," although it just makes esters in general]
