One physical properties of the distillate were determined. The boiling range(80.9-100°C) is most similar to azeotrope of ethanol-water which eliminates several possibility’s leaving only ethyl o-toluate, ethyl m-toluate, ethyl o-chlorobenzoate, and ethyl benzoate as possible unknown esters. More data is needed to fully conclude the identity
