Question: Draw the product formed in each directed aldol reaction.
Question: Zingerone, a spicy-sweet component of cooked ginger, can be converted to its protected TBDMS ether A, as we learned in Chapter 20. How can A be converted to gingerol, a compound present in fresh ginger, using a directed aldol reaction as a key step?

Question: (a) Draw a stepwise mechanism for the reaction of ethyl hexa-2,4-dienoate with diethyl oxalate in the presence of base.
(b) How does your mechanism explain why a new carbon-carbon bond forms on C6?
