1. A very common way to introduce an aldehyde group on an aromatic or alkenyl group is to react the appropriate organometallic reagent with N.N-dimethylformamide. Thinking about the intermediate formed by nucleophilic addition, why do you think that this might stop after addition and not immediately undergo substitution to give the aldehyde that would then react further. Also, please draw this initial addition intermediate for the following reaction as well as the final product. OMe
