An hour after starting the reaction with an appropriate base, Din decides to monitor the reaction by TLC. His results are shown beside. While he remembered to spot both of the starting materials as reference spots, he forgot to label them, and now needs help analyzing the results. Show him the way by assigning each of the spots below, briefly explaining your answer.

The compound eutypine is an antibacterial agent isolated from the fungus Eutypa lata. This fungus results in a disease common to vineyards called eutyposis. Give a sequence of reactions that will take the following reactant and give eutypine when the other reactants used in the sequence are acetylene and acetone.
Fluorination of a benzene ring can be accomplished with Selectfluor, a reagent that contains a fluorine bonded to a positively charged nitrogen atom. Fluorination is a useful reaction because several common drugs, such as the cholesterol-lowering drug atorvastatin, contain a fluorine bonded to an aromatic ring. Assuming that fluorination is analogous to other examples of electrophilic aromatic substitution, draw a stepwise mechanism for the following reaction.

Chemistry Please help explain this textbook question: Although N, N -dimethylaniline is extremely reactive toward electrophilic aromatic substitution and is readily substituted by weak electrophiles, such as diazonium and nitronium ions, this reactivity is greatly diminished by the introduction of an alkyl substituent in an ortho position.
