Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The formation of the product if each of the given reactants undergoes Claisen condensation is to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Claisen condensation occurs between two esters or one ester and a carbonyl compound that must have an alpha hydrogen atom with them

It favours the formation of a single bond between two carbon atoms in the presence of a strong base.

The product formed ion the Claisen condensation is either a β-keto ester or a β-diketone.
