Chapter 22.4, Problem 15P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The cyclic product that is formed by the reaction of the given 1,5dicarbonyl compound with aqueous OH is to be identified.

Concept introduction: The aldol reaction that takes place within the same molecule in the presence of strong base is known as intramolecular aldol reactions. This reaction generally takes place within the dicarbonyl compounds in which one carbonyl group forms the enolate ion that acts as a nucleophile and the carbonyl carbon of the second carbonyl group acts as an electrophile.
