Both ethanal and propanal have α − h y d r o g e n, therefore, they will give aldol products with themselves and cross aldol products with each other. Ethanal on aldol condensation gives But …

Aldehydes containing at least one α –hydrogen atom undergo a reaction in the presence of dilute alkali (dilute NaOH, KOH or Na 2 CO 3) as a catalyst to form β-hydroxy aldehydes (aldol). This …

When aldol condensation is carried out between two different aldehydes and/or ketones, it is called cross aldol condensation. If both of them contain a-hydrogen atoms, it gives a mixture of …

Draw the expanded structures of ethanal and propanal and then perform cross aldol condensation only on the compounds. Aldol condensation occurs in aldehydes that have α hydrogen with a …

Aldol condensation occurs in aldehydes having α-hydrogen with a dilute base to give β-hydroxy aldehydes called aldols. This reaction is most commonly known as aldol condensation. If the …

Cross aldol condensation of ethanal and propanal gives a mixture of four products. Correct option is A. Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for …

The process in which the aldehydes and the ketones, with at least one alpha-hydrogen, in the presence of a catalyst (dilute alkali) reacts & forms β-hydroxy aldehydes (aldol) or β-hydroxy …

Unless specific conditions are involved, a crossed aldol reaction can lead to a mixture of products from various pairings of the carbonyl reactants, as the following example illustrates with …

May 23, 2021 · Taking acetaldehyde (ethanal) and benzaldehyde as examples of aldehydes, crossed aldol condensation involves following steps: Step-I : In this step, hydroxide ion from …

Also, there are two different carbonyl compounds, ethanal and propanal. This gives rise to four possible products, all of which are observed. One of these products is the aldol of …
