When carboxylic acid reacts with organolithium reagents to give ketones,side reactions sometimes occur. For example,
$HOCH_2CH_2CH(CH_3)CH_2CH_2COOH$ $\xrightarrow[(x) \, CH_3Li]{tetrahydro\,furan}$ $\xrightarrow[NH_4Cl]{H_2O}$ $\underset{63\%}{\text{Compound } A: HOCH_2CH_2CH(CH_3)CH_2CH_2COCH_3}$ + $\underset{37\%}{\text{Compound } (B)}$
The value of $(x)$ in the above reaction is:

The reaction of carboxylic acids with alcohols is known as:
