The question is: "Draw the curved arrow mechanism for the reaction between pentan-2-one and (CH3)3O– in t-butanol to form an enolate. Draw all electrons and charges on both resonance structures. Then answer the question about the reaction."
I got the initial arrows correct, but am not entirely sure what the carbanion intermediate would look like and then what the curved arrows would be to convert it to its final oxanion form
This reaction does not follow the expected theory. Given what you
know about substitution/elimination, what is the expected mechanism
this reaction should follow? Suggest why that is not what happens and
give the actual product of the reaction.
