For a carboxylic acid undergoing condensation reaction, it combines withanother reactant, forming two products - an organic compound and the byproductof water. In an event when a carboxylic acid reacts with an alochol to producean ester and water, this process is called esterification. Example:...

A stream of oxygen- free N2 carries the reaction products through a bubbler filled with tablets of potassium hydroxide (KOH) (or with a KOH solution) to remove acids. It is further flowed through anhydrous calcium chloride (CaCl2) to remove traces of water. Finally, the alkyl nitrite is ...
Organometallics are therefore very powerful nucleophiles, and attack at the carbonyl group to give alcohols, forming a new C-C bond. The reactions from these two classes of organometallic reagents with carbonyl compounds, are among the most important ways of making carbon-carbon bonds. ...
