18 /th!l ethanoate is a larger molecule than either ethanol or ethanoic acid; it has a permanent dipole "ut no 6OH groups so molecules of the ester cannot form h!drogen "onds with each other.

than diesel fuel. he reaction with methanol produces separate smaller molecules so that the "iodiesel is more free#flowing and so easier to use as a fuel without ha$ing to modif! engines.
