Chapter 19, Problem 40P

When the aldol reaction of acetaldehyde is carried out in D 2 O , no deuterium is found in the methyl group of unreacted aldehyde. However, in the aldol reaction of acetone, deuterium is incorporated in the methyl group of the unreacted acetone. Explain this difference in behavior.

An enolate attacks an aldehyde and the resulting product is subsequently protonated. What type of reaction is this? an acid-catalyzed aldol condensation a Fischer esterification. a Grignard reaction. a base-mediated aldol condensation
In an aldol condensation reaction, acetone and benzaldehyde are mixed in the presence of sodium hydroxide to produce dibenzalacetone.  Does it matter whether the acetone is added first to the aq. NaOH solution then the benzaldehyde, or if the benzaldehyde is added first to the aq. NaOH solution, then the acetone? Explain
Draw the aldol product for the reaction of the aldehyde shown with NaOH. Assume the reaction is run under conditions that allow the reaction to stop before dehydration. u H NaOH
