How can this esterification be made???
In my book its written (not excatly for this synthesis but a similar one) as "dissolve (a specified amount of) I in ethanol bubble dry HCl gas for 30minutes let cool to room temperature..." Wouldn't he be Methanol??? Is there an error in this text???

Yes, it seems that is a typo, and it should be methanol.  Good catch!
