Vedclass · Answer

(D) The given reaction is an aldol condensation of cyclohexanone in the presence of a base $(	ext{OH}^-)$ and heat $(\Delta)$.$1$. Two molecules of cyclohexanone undergo self-aldol condensation to form $\beta$-hydroxy ketone (aldol product).$2$. Under heating $(\Delta)$,the aldol product undergoes dehydration to form an $\alpha,\beta$-unsaturated ketone.$3$. The initial aldol product is $2-(1-	ext{hydroxycyclohexyl})	ext{cyclohexanone}$.$4$. Upon heating,it loses a water molecule to form $2-	ext{cyclohexylidenecyclohexanone}$.$5$. Since the reaction includes heating $(\Delta)$,the final product $[X]$ is the dehydrated product,$2-	ext{cyclohexylidenecyclohexanone}$.

In the reaction,$[X]$ will be:
