Answer:
a. condensation
Explanation:
Dibenzalacetone is readily prepared by condensation of acetone with two equivalent of benzaldehyde. The aldehyde carbonyl is more reactive than that of the ketone and therefore reacts rapidly with the anion of the the ketone to give a β-hydroxyketone, which easily undergoes base catalyzed dehydration.16-Nov-2011
