Get started for freeAs shown in Figures 23-4, the Claisen reaction is reversible. That is, a𝛃-keto ester can be cleaved by base into two fragments. Using curved arrows to indicate electron flow, show the mechanism by which this cleavage occurs.
In contrast to the rapid reaction shown in Problem 23-60, ethyl acetoacetate requires a temperature over 150 °C to undergo the same kind of cleavage reaction. How can you explain the difference in reactivity?
The Mannich reaction of a ketone, an amine, and an aldehyde is one of the few three-component reactions in organic chemistry. Cyclohexanone, for example, reacts with dimethylamine and acetaldehyde to yield an amino ketone. The reaction takes place in two steps, both of which are typical carbonyl-group reactions.
(a)The first step is reaction between the aldehyde and the amine to yield an intermediate iminium ion plus water. Propose a mechanism, and show the structure of the intermediate iminium ion.
(b)The second step is reaction between the iminium ion intermediate and the ketone to yield the final product. Propose a mechanism.
How would you prepare the following compound using a Robinson annulation reaction between a𝛃-diketone and an𝛂,𝛃 -unsaturated ketone? Draw the structures of both reactants and the intermediate Michael addition product
