1. For simple Aldol reactions we use a small amount of base to catalyze the reaction. What would happen to the reaction if we used 1.1 eq of base in the reaction mixture? Illustrate your answer with a reaction diagram. 2. For intramolecular Aldol reactions 5 and 6 membered rings are formed readily whilst 3 and 4 memebered rings are now, explain using illustrations
