hey matey it would help if we knew what kinds of yeilds you got to answer that one! If they were 20% probably..if they were 75%+ probably not!
If you could you provide more information it would make it easier to answer and your chances of geting one will be higher
Things like how much ketone you started with, amounts of solvent and such will help a lot!
that depends on a few things but keeping a close eye on the speed of your ketone addition (slow maybe 1 drop per second) and the overall rxn temperature will help by keeping things cool by adding ice to the water bath you (I hope) have the flask in while you are doing the addition

What is the best way to get a slow rate reaction?
