All steps involved in the mechanism for the synthesis of the given product is shown as below.

(a) Protonation of the nitrogen atom takes place at first.

(b) One of the lone pair on oxygen atom attacks the carbon of double bond, where the double bond gets rearranged.

(c) A chloride anion from attacks the hydrogen present on the hydroxy group which gives the desired product.

In the absence of water, ophthalaldehyde has the structure shown. Its strong IR absorption is at 1687 cm-1; the proton NMR data are shown by the structure. In the presence of water, a new compound is formed that has a strong IR absorption around 3400 cm-1 and no absortion in the C=0 region. propose a structure of X consistent with this information and suggest how X consistent with this information and suggest how X was formed.

Sodium triacetoxyborohydride, NaBHOAc3, is a mild reducing agent that reduces aldehydes more quickly than ketones. It can be used to reduce aldehydes in the presence of ketones, such as in the following reaction:

(a) Draw a complete Lewis structure for sodium triacetoxyborohydride.

(b) Propose a mechanism for the reduction of an aldehyde by sodium triacetoxyborohydride.
