The conversion efficiency of alkanoic, alkenoic, branched, alicyclic, aromatic, keto-substituted, and dioic carboxylic acids to their corresponding butyl esters was compared under different reaction conditions (time, temperature, catalyst). We show that boron trifluoride is generally a more efficient catalyst than
