The Grandma Ester Corporation
The goal is to convince an investor to invest in your
company so that you can build a factory to make ester
compounds. For example, you could make hexyl
pentanoate, and sell it for use in perfumes and make
the investor money. You must come up with a
compound that you can make and sell. You can use
your textbooks and the internet as resources. You can
also access the link:

at an infographic of the ester compounds responsible for
the smell of different fruits, perfumes and flowers.
