Another reaction mechanism.
00:09
That's cool.
00:10
We have a cyclohex enone already in the reactant.
00:16
And we have 1 -3 -keto -s there.
00:21
Ah, i see where this is going.
00:23
Okay, so this is going to be your nucleophile because it has a super acidic proton there being adjacent to both carbonyles.
00:32
And this here is going to be your electrophile going through some michael edition.
00:37
Right? so with sodium thoxide, this anion can deprotonate here.
00:55
It doesn't really matter which side, but i'll move to the ketone.
01:12
Now this enolate can come down and around.
01:18
This carbon is going to attack the smycle acceptor.
01:26
We're going to generate a one, two, three, three, four, five membered ring.
01:32
At this position...
