Chapter 3, Problem 3.49P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

It is to be determined if all the atoms in buta-1, 3-diene have to reside in the same plane or not.

Concept introduction:

Groups which are connected by a single bond have the ability to rotate freely relative to each other. But the groups which are connected by a double bond do not rotate freely. In case of a double bond, the pi bond would be broken because during rotation, the overlap between p orbitals would be destroyed. When two atoms are connected by a double bond, those two atoms and all the atoms directly attached to them, prefer to lie in the same plane.

(please correct answer and don't use hand rating) Organic chemistry: Predict the product for the reaction below:
2. Consider the following intramolecular aldol condensation. This result is fully consistent with the two rules we use to determine the likely product of intramolecular aldol condensation reactions. Rule 1: Only form 5 or 6 membered rings, rule 2: the less- hindered carbonyl group will serve as the electrophile. OH- H₂O product not formed Interestingly, if the same starting material is treated with a secondary amine such as pyrrolidine and some acid, the other product is formed preferentially. Describe the mechanism for what is happening in the presence of amine and acid. (6 points)
