I'm stuck!
« on: February 14, 2025, 04:46:51 AM »
Hello everyone,

Could someone help me understand the mechanism behind this reaction? Kindly, if possible, in addition to the description, could you highlight the various steps involved? I have some ideas, but I'm stuck! Thank you.

I believe that the mechanism involves the typical reactions of aldehydes, particularly the synthesis of acetals.
