(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

To predict the major product and propose a mechanism for the given set of reactions.

Concept introduction:

Ketone when treated with a base undergoes deprotonation at the α carbon to form enolate.  The enolate formed undergoes alkylation when treated with alkyl halide.  If LDA is used as a base the less substituted α carbon is deprotonated due to steric hindrance but if NaH is used as base means the more substituted α carbon is deprotonated.

  • Deprotonation of α carbon to form enolate
  • Alkylation with alkyl halide

To predict : The predict the major product and propose a mechanism
