Benzylamine synthesis from benzaldehyde follows the mechanism of reductive amination BECAUSE benzylamine is synthesised form benzaldehyde through an enamine intermediate Hyperconjugation can stabilise carbocation intermediates BECAUSE secbutyl carbocation can rearrange to a tertbutyl carbocation. Reductive amination requires a hydrogen on the carbonyl carbon to proceed BECAUSE Reductive amination converts only aldehydes to amines

Reaction of X and phenylacetic acid forms an intermediate Y, which undergoes an intramolecular reaction to yield rofecoxib. Rofecoxib is a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agent once marketed under the trade name Vioxx, now withdrawn from the market because of increased risk of heart attacks from long-term use in some patients. Identify Y and draw a stepwise mechanism for its conversion to rofecoxib.
