Can someone lead me through how to do this problem step-by-step?
Here's what I did:
Lithium organocuprates add only through 1,4 addition so I made the methyl anion attack the beta carbon on the left. This would shift the electrons to form a double bond between the carbonyl carbon and the alpha carbon. Also, the double bond between the C and the O would shift to be on the O. Next, I had the double bond between the carbonyl carbon and the alpha carbon grab a proton from the H3O+, which made my final product.
However, I don't know how that double bond on the right shifted over to form a conjugated product.
Any help is appreciated, thanks.
