Question 4 The addition of a base to cis-t-butylcyclohexanecarbaldehyde results in an equilibrium mixture of the cis- and trans-isomers in which the trans-isomer predominates. Explain this observation by means of notes and a mechanism (in other words, curly mechanistic arrows!). CHO CHO base cis-t-butylcyclohexanecarbaldehyde trans-t-butylcyclohexanecarbaldehyde
