Given below are two statements :
Statement I : The esterification of carboxylic acid with an alcohol is a nucleophilic acyl substitution.
Statement II : Electron withdrawing groups in the carboxylic acid will increase the rate of esterification reaction.
Choose the most appropriate option :
Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.
Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct.
Answers (1)
Esterification is an example of nucleophilic acyl substitution
RDS in the reaction is the attack of the alcohol on the carboxylic acid and electron-withdrawing groups on the carboxylic acid increase the electrophilic nature of the acyl group.
Statements I and II are both correct
Hence the correct option is 1.
