Question
What product would you expect to obtain from aldol cyclization of hexanedial,
Step-by-Step Solution
Verified Answer
Aldol cyclization of hexanedial, generally gives five-member ring aldehydic compounds.
1Cyclization in hexanedial
In Hexanedial, cyclization is undergone through intramolecular aldol reaction in which reaction occurs within the same compound and a high member ring is formed which is strain-free and stable.
