(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The product of the aldol reaction of the given compound and the α,β-unsaturated aldehyde or ketone formed from dehydration of the aldol product has to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Aldol reaction is an addition reaction of aldehydes and ketones. Aldol reaction is a reversible reaction and occurs in the presence of a strong base like sodium hydroxide. One molecule (aldehyde or ketone) acts a nucleophile and attacks the electrophilic carbon center of the other molecule to give the addition product. The product is named β-hydroxy aldehyde if two aldehydes combine and β-hydroxy ketone if two ketones combine.

(a)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

The aldol reaction product for the given compound has to be drawn.

The aldol reaction yield a β-hydroxy aldehyde as the product and on dehydration, water is eliminated and the product is formed.

Base abstracts a proton from the α carbon atom of aldehyde. Enolate anion is formed after abstraction of α proton from aldehyde molecule. Enolate ion attacks on the carbonyl carbon of the other molecule of aldehyde. The species formed in this step abstracts proton from water to give the β-hydroxy aldehyde. Loss of water molecule from the aldol product produces the product given below.
