akcapr Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 for chemistry at school im going to synthesize an ester, but simple esters like mehtyl salicylate and octyl acetate seem to simple. what would be one that i could make thats a level up if you know what i mean? and tell me the synthesis if you can. oh and they need have some kind of cool smell thats most important.

budullewraagh Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 you could make the isopropyl ester of methylphosphorofluoridic acid:rolleyes: that's pretty exotic. and deadly. you could also make the glyceryl ester of nitric acid. that (nitroglycerin) would be explosive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silkworm Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 You could make isoamyl acetate. It's artificial banana flavoring and what bees use as an alarm scent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
