In Chapter 20, we studied the aldol reaction. Although not discussed at the time, this reaction is stereospecific, proceeding through the Zimmerman–Traxler transition state shown here.
(a) Show an arrow-pushing mechanism for this concerted reaction.
(b) Why is this a favorable mechanism?

The Ireland–Claisen reaction is a variant of the Claisen reaction studied in this chapter.
(a) Suggest a mechanism for the first step.
(b) Predict the product (B) that would result from heating intermediate A.
(c) Hydrolysis of B gives a carboxylic acid.
Suggest a mechanism for this reaction.
While not covered explicitly in this chapter, the ene reaction occurs similarly to the Diels–Alder reaction but replaces the electrons from one bond in the diene with the electrons in a C―H bond. Draw the mechanism for the following reaction. [Number the carbons and draw in the hydrogens of the product. And, of course, make a note of bonds formed and bonds broken.]
