Concept explainers
a)
Interpretation:
The product obtained in the aldol reaction of butanal is to be given.
Concept introduction:
To give:
The product obtained in the aldol reaction of butanal.
b)
Interpretation:
The product obtained in the aldol reaction of acetophenone is to be given.
Concept introduction:
Aldehydes and ketones with α-hydrogen undergo a base catalyzed carbonyl condensation reaction in aldol condensation. In this reaction two molecules of the reactant combine by forming a bond between α-carbon of one molecule and the carbonyl carbon of the second molecule. The product is a β-hydroxyaldehyde or ketone.
To give:
The product obtained in the aldol reaction of acetophenone.
c)
Interpretation:
The product obtained in the aldol reaction of cyclopentanone is to be given.
