AlCl3 is a Lewis Acid, which means it takes the lone pair from the ether oxygen That leaves the oxygen positively charged, so it breaks one of the bonds next to it and takes both the electrons to become neutral However, that leaves (+)C=O To make this more stable, the hydrogen from the carbon next to (+)C=O goes on there and creates a carbocation where it was The positive charged compound, which is now an electrophile, then attacks benzene's pi electrons I'm taking a guess here, try writing that down and tell me what you get

how
Dexter
Dexter•3w ago
because +ve charge dekho kahan hai
Gamertug
GamertugOP•3w ago
it shifted
Dexter
Dexter•3w ago
and fir usse attack karke bond banaega to bas ek hi bond aaega na
Gamertug
GamertugOP•3w ago
to secondary
Dexter
Dexter•3w ago
😿idts shift hoga isme
Gamertug
GamertugOP•3w ago
why , it would be super unstable , +ve mai oxygen aur kich raha hai
Dexter
Dexter•3w ago
but oxygen still has a lonepair oxygen ka triple bond tho😶 seems shady
Gamertug
GamertugOP•3w ago
yes it will also resonate if it shifts
Dexter
Dexter•3w ago
let the others check

Dibal H will reduce the cynide to Imine Imine ke hydrolysis se Aldehyde and Acetaldehyde and this aldehyde will do aldol
Percy
Percy•2w ago
In cross aldol two products will be formed (option a and b) which one should we take as major product
Dexter
Dexter•2w ago
no? ek hi product aaega aromatic wale aldehyde mein There are no alpha H how will you do aldol from that
Percy
