C6H5COOH + CH3OH xrightarrowH+ underset textmethyl benzoateC6H5COOHCH3 + H2O (The reaction is methyl benzoate known as Fischer - Sprier esterification reaction.) C6H5COCl + CH3OH xrightarrow textPyridine C6H5COOCH3 + HCl C 6 H 5 COOH + underset text diazomethane CH 2 xrightarrow N 2 C 6 H 5 COOCH 3+ N 2 (Methyl easters can be prepared by treating carboxylic acid with ethereal solution of diazomethane. Hence, methyl benzoate can be prepared by all these above methods.

Q. Methyl benzoate can be prepared by

$C_{6} H_{5} COO H + C H_{3} O H H^{+}$

$C_{6} H_{5} COOCl + C H_{3} O H Pyridine$

$C_{6} H_{5} COO H + C H_{2} N_{2} \to$

All of the above method
