Step by step solution

01

Enamine acylation

In this, acylation of the enamine occurs to form the di-carbonyl product.Enamine occurs s nucleophile forming iminium ion followed by acylation of the carbon of carbonyl group followed by hydrolysis to form di-carbonyl compound as shown:

02

 Claisen condensation followed by aldol self-condensation

The nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction of carbonyl forming the enolate ion with ether group followed by the removal of -OEt group, which further leads to removing –OH (aldol self-condensation) shown to form the di-carbonyl product.
