Cyclohexanone

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether cyclohexanone undergoes aldol condensation, Cannizzaro reaction, or neither, we will analyze its structure and the reactions involved. ### Step 1: Identify the Structure of Cyclohexanone Cyclohexanone is a cyclic ketone with the following structure: - It has a six-membered carbon ring with a carbonyl group (C=O) at one of the carbon atoms. ### Step 2: Check for Alpha Hydrogens - Cyclohexanone has alpha hydrogens. The carbon adjacent to the carbonyl group (the alpha carbon) has hydrogens attached to it. In this case, there are four alpha hydrogens available. ...
