### Task: Draw the Structural Formula for the Ionic Form of the Following Phosphate Ester

**Chemical Structure**

The chemical structure shown above is a phosphate ester with the following formula:

\[ \text{H}_3\text{C} - \text{O} - \text{P} = \text{O} - \text{O} - \text{CH}_3 \]

- The phosphate group (\( \text{PO}_4 \)) is central, with one oxygen double-bonded to phosphorus and two oxygen atoms single-bonded to phosphorus.
- Two methyl groups (\( \text{CH}_3 \)) are attached via oxygen atoms.

**ChemDoodle Tool Interface**

The image includes a ChemDoodle interface with various drawing tools:

- **Tool Icons:** These are located at the top and include functions such as drawing lines, rings, erasers, undo/redo, and selection tools.
- **Drawing Area:** The main workspace for creating chemical structures.
- **Help Icon:** Provides information or troubleshooting for using the ChemDoodle software.

**Current Workspace Contents**

- The workspace currently contains the text "CH₄", indicating the placement of a methane molecule.

**Instructions**

- Use the provided tools in ChemDoodle to manipulate and draw the complete ionic form of the phosphate ester.
- Consider charge distribution and resonance structures that might be relevant for the ionic form.

**Question:**

Which of the following structures represent esters?

(Select all that apply.)

**Structures:**

1. First Structure:
   - A molecule with the formula: 
     - CH₃C(=O)-O-CH₃ 
     - Contains a carbonyl group (C=O) adjacent to an oxygen atom, which is bonded to an alkyl group.

2. Second Structure:
   - A molecule with the formula:
     - CH₃CH₂C(=O)-O-CH₂H 
     - Contains a carbonyl group (C=O) adjacent to an oxygen atom, which is bonded to another carbon chain.

3. Third Structure:
   - A molecule with the formula:
     - CH₃C(=O)-O-CH₂CH₃ 
     - Contains a carbonyl group (C=O) adjacent to an oxygen atom, which is bonded to an ethyl group.

4. Fourth Structure:
   - A cyclic molecule with two carbonyl groups (C=O) connected to a shared oxygen atom, forming a lactone-like structure.

**Instructions:** Select all structures that are esters. 

**Explanation:**

- An ester is characterized by a carbonyl group (C=O) directly bonded to an oxygen atom (O), which is further bonded to an alkyl or aryl group.
