Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The most reasonable structure of naringenin chalcone is to be determined on the basis of the given hypothesis.

Concept Introduction:

In intramolecular Claisen condensation, a new five or six membered ring is formed.

An enolate acts as a nucleophile and a new carbon-carbon bond is formed between a carbonyl carbon and the enolate.

Other carbonyl groups, if present, remain intact.

They are converted to enol form if the enol form is more stable compared to the keto form.
