Total theoritically possible organic products including stereo isomerism in given reaction is:
Options:
Answer:
C
Solution:
Question Explanation:
Calculate the total number of organic products formed (structural + stereoisomers) from the reaction between Acetaldehyde and Acetone in the presence of base and heat.
Concept:
This question is based on self & cross-Aldol condensation and geometrical isomerism.
Solution:
The reaction involves self and cross-aldol condensation between Acetaldehyde and Acetone. Four distinct structural products are formed, and we must check each for geometrical isomerism.
Total number of organic products formed = 6
