Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The products obtained from the given crossed Claisen condensation reaction and the combinations which are poor choices for this reaction are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
In crossed claisen condensation, an ester without the alpha hydrogen adds to a solution of the alkoxide base. The reaction of ester with alpha hydrogens to this solution is slow where it forms enolate and condenses. In this reaction, the electrophilic component is ester without alpha hydrogens.
(b)
Interpretation:
The products obtained from the given crossed Claisen condensation reaction and the combinations which are poor choices for this reaction are to be stated.
