What is the chemical equation for the preparation of the following compound from ethyl acetoacetate (CH₂CH₂C₈H₃, ethyl acetoacetate)? Can you please check if my solution is correct?
a) CH₃COCH₂CH₂COCH₃ + NH₃ → CH₃CONH₂ + CH₃COCH₂CH₂COOH
b) CH₃COCH₂CH₂COCH₃ + NaOH → CH₃COCH₂CH₂COONa + CH₃OH
c) CH₃COCH₂CH₂COCH₃ + CH₃OH → CH₃COCH₂CH₂COOCH₃ + H₂O
d) CH₃COCH₂CH₂COCH₃ + H₂O → CH₃COCH₂CH₂COOH + CH₃OH
