Q. $(C H_{3})_{3} C - C H O$ does not undergo aldol condensation due to

three electron donating methyl groups

cleavage taking place between $- C - C H O$ bond

absence of alpha hydrogen atom in the molecule

bulky $(C H_{3})_{3} C$ - group

does not undergo aldol condensation because it does not contain $α$ -hydrogen atom.

Q. (CH3​)3​C−CHO does not undergo aldol condensation due to

three electron donating methyl groups

cleavage taking place between −C−CHO bond

absence of alpha hydrogen atom in the molecule

bulky (CH3​)3​C - group

does not undergo aldol condensation because it does not contain α-hydrogen atom.

Q. $(C H_{3})_{3} C - C H O$ does not undergo aldol condensation due to

cleavage taking place between $- C - C H O$ bond

bulky $(C H_{3})_{3} C$ - group

does not undergo aldol condensation because it does not contain $α$ -hydrogen atom.
