Interpretation:
A detailed mechanism for the reaction between compound designated as “2” and ethyl acetoacetate in the presence of ethoxide ion to form the given product is to be written.
Concept introduction:
Electrophiles are electron deficient species that have positive or partially positive charge. Lewis acids are electrophiles that accept electron pair.
Nucleophiles are electron rich species that have negative or partially negative charge. Lewis bases are nucleophiles that donate electron pair.
Free radical is an atom, molecule, or ion that has unpaired electrons that makes it highly chemically reactive.
Substitution reaction: A reaction in which one of the hydrogen atoms of a hydrocarbon or a
Elimination reaction: A reaction in which two substituent groups are detached and a double bond is formed is called elimination reaction.
Addition reaction: It is the reaction in which unsaturated bonds are converted to saturated molecules by the addition of molecules.
Carbonyl condensation usually involves reaction of two carbonyl groups to join both of the reactants. Claisen condensation is a
An intermolecular Claisen condensation is called a Dieckmann condensation. This type of condensation reaction is useful in the preparation of five or six membered rings.

- Following is a synthesis for toremifene, a nonsteroidal estrogen antagonist whose structure is closely related to that of tamoxifen. (a) This synthesis makes use of two blocking groups, the benzyl (Bn) group and the tetrahydropyranyl (THP) group. Draw a structural formula of each group and describe the experimental conditions under which it is attached and removed. (b) Discuss the chemical logic behind the use of each blocking group in this synthesis. (c) Propose a mechanism for the conversion of D to E. (d) Propose a mechanism for the conversion of F to toremifene. (e) Is toremifene chiral?

- NOC XT Ph CH₂ Both primary and secondary amines add to a ß-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones to yield ß-amino aldehydes and ketones rather than the alternative imines. Under typical reaction conditions, both direct and conjugate modes of addition occur rapidly. But because the reactions are reversible, they generally proceed with thermodynamic control rather than kinetic control so the more stable conjugate addition product is often obtained to the complete exclusion of the less stable direct addition product. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the mechanism.
