In the Nacsa lab, we focus on an electrochemical design for a catalytic esterification reaction without using acid or base additives. In my research however, I have been testing if this reaction can be done without any catalyst at all using similar conditions. The acid and alcohol pair are reacted with a base and an electrolyte while manipulating the current, airflow, time, and amounts to determine if this reaction can not only be done, but be done in good yield.
