Which of the following best summarizes a Claisan condensation?
Which of the following best summarizes a Claisan condensation?
Tap to reveal answer
The most acidic hydrogen of the ester gets abstracted and the enolate form of the compound is attained. The electrons from the carbon-carbon double bond attack the carbonyl carbon of the other ester. Deesterfication occurs in this same step. The final product has one ketone and one ester.
