Vedclass · Answer

(B) Aldol condensation requires the presence of at least one $\alpha$-hydrogen atom in the carbonyl compound. $1$. Acetone $(CH_3COCH_3)$ has $6$ $\alpha$-hydrogens. $2$. Benzophenone $(C_6H_5COC_6H_5)$ has no $\alpha$-hydrogen atom attached to the carbonyl carbon. $3$. Acetaldehyde $(CH_3CHO)$ has $3$ $\alpha$-hydrogens. $4$. Acetophenone $(C_6H_5COCH_3)$ has $3$ $\alpha$-hydrogens. Therefore,Benzophenone does not undergo aldol condensation.

Which of the following carbonyl compounds does $NOT$ undergo aldol condensation?
