Show how you would accomplish each conversion using an enamine synthesis with pyrrolidine as the secondary amine.
(c)
Acid-catalyzed halogenation is synthetically useful for converting ketones to α,β-unsaturated ketones, which are useful in Michael reactions (Section 22-18). Propose a method for converting cyclohexanone to cyclohex-2-en-1-one, an important synthetic starting material.
