(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The preparation of the below given compound using directed aldol reactions has to be given.

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 19.9, Problem 19.17P , additional homework tip  1

Concept Introduction:

In directed aldol reactions, the enolate anion is prepared with one carbonyl compound by LDA (Lithium diisopropylamide).  The other carbonyl compound acts as an electrophile.  Both of the carbonyl compounds have α-hydrogens, but only one enolate is prepared using LDA.  When unsymmetrical ketone is used, it forms less substituted enolate.

LDA (Lithium diisopropylamide) is a strong base.  It converts aldehydes, ketones and esters into their enolate anions.
