    Esterification is the chemical process that occurs during the production of an ester. Esterification is the interaction of an organic acid (RCOOH) with an alcohol (ROH) to produce an ester (RCOOR) and water, or a chemical reaction that produces at least one ester product. An ester is formed when an alcohol and a carboxylic acid undergo an esterification process.
