Question: Predict the products of the following reactions
e.

In Solved Problem 22-9, the target molecule was synthesized using a Michael addition to form the bond that is to the upper carbonyl group. Another approach is to use a Michael addition to form the bond that isto the other (lower) carbonyl group. Show how you would accomplish this alternative synthesis.
Question:Show how you would use an aldol, Claisen, or another type of condensation to make each compound
b.

Show how an acetoacetic ester synthesis might be used to form a δ -diketone such as heptane-2,6-dione.
The Knoevenagel condensation is a special case of the aldol condensation in which an active methylene compound reacts with an aldehyde or ketone, in the presence of a secondary amine as a basic catalyst, to produce a new C=C. Show the starting materials that made each of these by a Knoevenagel condensation.
