here'e sthe link.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birch_reduction

i think both are right....

is n't there a need of an alcohol here[7] like EtOH

i am lazy to draw but whatever i gave damn sure that i am right.

after NH3 adds , its a free radical
CH3-C^(.)=CH3

the second carbon is a carbon with a single electron

cant understand............draw it plzzzzz..i am getting it wrong......book says something else....

the intermediate before NH3 acts is CH3-C=C^---CH3

THERE IS A NEGATIVE CHARGE ON THE THIRD CARBON FROM RIGHT

reaction definitely takes palce.........thats why asking intermediate......[3]
