Explain aldol condensation reaction in detail.
Why are carboxylic acids more acidic than alcohols or phenols although all of them have hydrogen atom attached to a oxygen atom \[\ce{(-O-H)}\]?
Assertion: The α-hydrogen atom in carbonyl compounds is less acidic.
Reason: The anion formed after the loss of α-hydrogen atom is resonance stabilised.
Which of the following gives aldol con~ensation reaction?
\[\ce{CH3-CH2-CHO ->[dil][alkali] Product}\]
The product in the above reaction is:
