Draw the structure of the neutral product formed in the following reaction.
Aspirin is an anti-inflammatory agent because it inhibits the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins by the transfer of its acetyl group (CH3CO−) to an OH group at the active site of an enzyme. This reaction, called transesterification, results in the conversion of one ester to another by a nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction. Draw a stepwise mechanism for the given transesterification.
Draw the two electrophiles for this reaction.

The donor molecule, as in the case of the standard Claisen condensation, is one that has more than one acidic a-hydrogen. The mechanism for the mixed Claisen condensation proceeds as for the standard reaction: nucleophilic attack of the enolate anion on the carbonyl group of the target, expulsion of the weakest base, deprotonation to drive the equilibrium forward, and subsequent protonation to give the final product.
