Predict the product of the reaction given below.

Show how the below-given compound can be produced using an alkyl halide and a ketone.

When an α-haloketone reacts with the hydroxide ion, a carboxylic acid is formed. This is known as a Favorskii reaction. Propose a suitable mechanism for the Favorskii reaction below. Hint: The first step is deprotonation of the α-carbon that is not bonded to Br, the second step is forming a three-membered ring, and in the third step HO⁻ acts as a nucleophile.

Draw the structures of the major products expected from the reaction given below.

Provide the complete equations of the following reactions showing the alkylated and acylated intermediates and the final products expected after their hydrolysis.

a. piperidine enamine of propan-2-one + allyl bromide

b. piperidine enamine of propan-2-one + acetyl chloride

Consider the following enamine alkylation reaction:

diethylamine enamine of cyclohexanone + iodoethane
