1. 2. Aldol condensation between two molecules of 3-methylcyclohexanone can lead to a mixture of several products (not counting double bond isomers). Draw as many products as you can from this condensation. Explain why it is sometimes helpful to scratch the inside surface of the container with a glass rod to induce crystallization. 1. 2.
