3.) For the following intermediates, please draw as many resonance contributors that you can come up with. Then circle the highest contributor and draw a hybrid resonance illustration for each molecule.
You react an unknown aldehyde (substitutent group marked with an "x") with a ketone and get the product on the right (substitutent group still unknown). HNMR data for the product is shown below. Which of these 3 aldehydes is the reactant that was used? sorry the HNMR looks rough, this was the last question on my final and I am still kinda reeling from it.
