Question
Chapter 22.7A, Problem 22.18P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Mechanism for the aldol condensation of cyclohexanone is to be proposed. Whether the equiulibrium favor the reactant or the product is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
In base-catalysed aldol condensation, nucleophilic addition of an enolate ion takes place on a carbonyl group. In first step, an alpha proton is removed to produce enolate ion. It adds to the carbonyl group. In the next step, protonation of alkoxide gives the aldol product.
