Question: Draw the aldol product formed from each pair of starting materials using OH,H2O.

Question: What aldehyde or ketone is needed to prepare each compound by an aldol reaction?

Question:One step in a recent short synthesis of a prostaglandin (Section 19.6) involves the conversion of succinaldehyde to the bicyclic hemiacetal X. Draw a stepwise mechanism for this process. (Hint: The mechanism begins with an intermolecular aldol reaction.)

Question: In theory, the intramolecular aldol reaction of 6-oxoheptanal could yield the three compounds shown. It turns out, though, that 1-acetylcyclopentene is by far the major product. Why are the other two compounds formed in only minor amounts? Draw a stepwise mechanism to show how all three products are formed.

Question: Devise a stepwise mechanism for the following reaction, a key step in the synthesis of the antibiotic abyssomicin C. Abyssomicin C was isolated from sediment collected from almost 1000 ft below the surface in the Sea of Japan. (Hint: The mechanism begins with a Dieckmann reaction.)
