Chapter 31: Q22E (page 1054)

Draw the structure of Kedol, a polyester prepared by heating dimethyl 1,4- benzene dicarboxylate with 1,4- bis (hydroxymethyl) cyclohexane.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The answer is,

Step by step solution

01

Esterification Reaction

The esterification reaction is the reaction taking place by the alcohols and carboxylic acids. The hydroxyl groups of alcohols and carboxylic group of acids undergo a reaction to leaving a water molecule giving an ester compound

02

Step 2:

The polyester kedol can be synthesized as shown below.

Reaction

The reactants used are dimethyl 1,4- benzene dicarboxylate and 1,4- bis (hydroxymethyl) cyclohexane. They on heating undergo the removal of methanol to give the product Kedol. This is an esterification reaction.
