2. If m-N, N-dimethylaminophenol reacts with ethyl acetoacetate, what outcome will be obtained? Illustrate the structure. 3. Draw the mechanism regarding the reaction within question 2.

Since both the groups are ortho and para directing group but position a is hinde3red. So, it is not possible for attack from there. Now we have para position of -OH and or we can say ortho position of -N group which will be the right position property is dominant over -OH group directing property. Thus, the product is formed due to substitution at ortho position to N group....
