Chapter 21.3, Problem 11P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Considering the retrosynthetic analysis, the structure of the diketone formed by intramolecular aldol condensationfor each of the given compound are to be deduced.

Concept Introduction:

>

In the presence of either acid or base, the two molecules of aldehydes or ketone that present alpha hydrogen are react and forms β-hydroxy carbonyl compounds, this reaction is known as aldol addition reaction.

>

In intramolecular aldol condensation, the self-condensation of diketone occurs to form cyclic enone.

>

Retrosynthesis is used to identify the reactants. It involves the breaking of the target molecule into starting materials.
