I have added some colour to help you see what is happening here]. OH + H catalyst Et₂O (solvent) OH O F In this reaction, the product F contains the same functional groups as the starting material E (an ester and an alcohol). Because of this, in principle the reaction could proceed in the reverse direction (FE) - explain why this is unfavourable..
