Does aromatic aldehydes give aldol condensation?
Does aromatic aldehydes give aldol condensation? The reaction between an aldehyde or ketone having an α-hydrogen with an aromatic carbonyl compound lacking an α-hydrogen is called the Claisen–Schmidt condensation....Aldol condensationOrganic Chemistry Portalaldol-condensationRSC ontology IDRXNO:0000017 Which aldehyde gives aldol condensation? 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 condensation reaction occurs between two different carbonyl compounds it is called crossed aldol condensation. Why mixed aldol condensation of aliphatic aldehyde is not useful? Between an aldehyde and a ketone Also known as...
