So over here we are going to have the condensation reaction of acetone that is going to produce the following product.
00:07
Double bond oxygen, double bond, ch3, ch3.
00:12
And the mechanism for this reaction is going to be the following.
00:15
We're going to start with taking away one of the hydrogens at this position and putting the base that we have in hand.
00:27
The pair of electrons goes to this position and the oxygen is going to take the pair of electrons from the double bond.
00:32
This is going to generate the following compound, oxygen with a minus, normally we put all of the pair of electrons just for sake of completion, then we're going to have double bond.
00:44
Now as a next step, of course here we're going to generate as well water, what is going to happen is that the pair of electrons is going to go back to generate a double bond and now this pair can attack a carbon which has the double bond of the other acetone molecule...
