(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Mechanism for the base-catalysed rearrangement for the given α,β unsaturated carbonyl compound has to be proposed.

Concept introduction:

The carbon which is adjacent to the carbonyl group is known as α- carbon, followed next by β- carbon and γ- carbon.

The α,β- unsaturated carbonyl compounds are a type of carbonyl compounds where there is a double bond between the α and β- carbon.

The β,γ unsaturated carbonyl compound are those with a double bond between the β and γ- carbon.

The α,β- unsaturated carbonyl compounds are most stable than the β,γ- unsaturated carbonyl compound and rearrangement takes place in presence of either an acid or a base.

(b)
