Ok and here it is problem nr. 8, second molecule.
Homework Equations
No equations needed.
The Attempt at a Solution
1)
So why is it that we do not add any acid here, as far as I know one need acid, in order to do a succesfull carbonlyl or conjugate addition, right? So how come? And because it is LiMe (which is a hard nucleophile) I think it will be a carbonyl addition, so am I right?
2)
Well I did not really get that far as I am really not sure how to produce an ether from conjugate addition... So how to?
