Draw the products formed in the crossed aldol reaction of phenylacetaldehyde
(a)
Interpretation: The product that is formed in the given crossed aldol reaction of phenylacetaldehyde
Concept introduction: The crossed aldol reaction takes place between the two different carbonyl compounds that is between two different aldehydes or two different ketones or one aldehyde and one ketone. The crossed aldol reaction takes place only if the carbonyl compound contains an acidic
