For 10 points, name these functional groups formed by the reaction of an alcohol and a carboxylic acid, which often have distinctive fruity odours.
These function groups can be formed by the reaction of alcohols and nitriles under acidic aqueous conditions in the Pinner Reaction, and they can be reduced to primary alcohols using ethanol and sodium in the Bouveault-Blanc Reaction. Carbonyl groups are found beta to these functional groups in the products of the Dieckmann and Claisen condensations.
