Below is a mechanism that represents the following single reaction sequence: a certain ketone undergoes alkylation (transfer of an alkyl group from one molecule to another) to give a new ketone, when reacted with a base and then an alkylating agent, 1-bromopropane. What is the structure of the final ketone product? * K* CH3 :0: :O: CH3 CH3-CH, ö-c-CH3 CH-C-CH2 HÖ-C-CH3 CH3 H. CH3 Step 1 &+ 8- Step 2 CH3CH2CH2-Br: :0: final ketone product?
