Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structural formula of the product formed in each of the given reactions is to be provided.

Concept Introduction:

▸ LDA stands for lithium disopyramide. It is a strong base.

▸ In Sn2 reaction, one bond is broken and one bond is formed. In Sn2 reaction, the nucleophile attacks the less sterically hindered carbon.

▸ Alkylation of ketones takes place with the help of lithium enolates.

▸ Sodium hydride is used to generate the enolate ions.
