### Naming Organic Molecules: Ester Examples

In this exercise, we are asked to write the systematic name of each organic molecule presented. The structures provided are esters, which are characterized by the presence of a carbonyl group (C=O) adjacent to an ether linkage (C-O-C).

#### Structure 1:

- **Structure:** 
  \[
  \text{CH}_3 - \text{CH}_2 - \text{CH}_2 - \text{C(=O) - O - CH}_2 - \text{CH}_2 - \text{CH}_3}
  \]
- **Explanation:**
  - This molecule is composed of a propyl group attached to the carbonyl carbon and a butyl group on the oxygen side.
  - **Systematic Name:** Propyl butanoate

#### Structure 2:

- **Structure:** 
  \[
  \text{CH}_3 - \text{CH}_2 - \text{CH}_2 - \text{C(=O) - O - CH}_3
  \]
- **Explanation:**
  - This ester is made up of a butyl group attached to the carbonyl carbon and a methyl group bonded to the oxygen.
  - **Systematic Name:** Methyl butanoate

#### Structure 3:

- **Structure:** 
  \[
  \text{CH}_3 - \text{O - C(=O) - CH}_2 - \text{CH}_2 - \text{CH}_2 - \text{CH}_3}
  \]
- **Explanation:**
  - Here, a methyl group is attached to the oxygen atom, and the carbonyl carbon is bonded to a pentyl group.
  - **Systematic Name:** Methyl pentanoate

Each of these structures represents an example of how the variations in the carbon chains and positioning relate to the systematic naming of ester compounds based on IUPAC nomenclature.
