4. Keto-enoltautomerism is a reversible reaction but the enclate formation can be performed in an irreversible manner by using sterically hindered strong bases. The pka of diisopropylamine is approximately 36, and therefore, ithium diisopropylamide (DA) can be used to accomplish irreversible enclate formation a. Draw a mechanism for the generation of thium disopropylamide from N.N-diisopropylamine and n-butyllithium. b. Draw a mechanism for the formation of the enolate anion from acetaldehyde using LDA
