Question
The compound shown below is the product of a Claisen condensation or a Dieckmann condensation. Draw structural formulas for the ester and enolate ion reactants. Remember that a Dieckmann
condensation is intramolecular and therefore the enolate ion and the ester are part of the same reactant.
e
Draw the enolate ion in its carbanion form.
• Assume all esters to be used are ethyl esters.
• Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner.
Separate multiple reactants using the + sign from the drop-down menu.
