Chapter 22, Problem 22.90AP
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The curved arrow mechanism for the formation of acetone and 3methylcyclohexanone from the reaction of terpene pulegone with aqueous base NaOH is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

In Aldol condensation reaction, the base abstracts an acidic proton from the α carbon atom to form enolate. This enolate or enol reacts with carbonyl compound that leads to the formation of β-hydroxyaldehyde or β-hydroxyketone which on further dehydration gives the conjugated enone. The terpene pulegone is an organic compound that is derived from oils from variety of plants. It is used as flavoring agent.
