Is a step-wise approach, such as that outlined below, needed to accomplish this aldol reaction? Why? LDA CH;CH2CHO ОН O a) Yes, to ensure proper enolate formation and limit product mixtures O b) Yes, to ensure proper enolate formation as the only reason O c) Yes, to limit product mixtures only O d) No, this reaction would work well under one-pot conditions with NaOH (aq)

LDA is the base of choice for carbonyl compound to completely convert into enolate. Why?
This question has multiple parts. Work all the parts to get the most points. The Stork reaction is a condensation reaction between an enamine donor and an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl acceptor. The overall reaction consists of a three-step sequence of formation of an enamine from a ketone, Michael addition to an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound, and hydrolysis of the enamine in dilute acid to regenerate the ketone. Consider the Stork reaction between cyclohexanone and propenal.
