Step-by-Step Solution
Verified Answer
The product from the above reactants when they undergo a mixed Claisen-like reaction are acetate and alcohol.
1Mixed Claisen Reaction
A mixed Claisen reaction is effective when only one of the two partners has an acidic α- hydrogen atom and the other does not therefore, one form of acetate can convert into an enolate ion hence one is a donor and another is an accepter.
