Answer 13

The first one looks like a reaction within itself. Kind of like decarboxylation of beta-ketoacids. The second one I don't know the detailed mechanism, but I do know that it forms aromatic rings with alkynes, in room temp.
And the last one, I would use resonance to argue the 1,3-methyl shift :)
RESONANCE is everything in o-chem II, haha.

Answer 15

Do you have the answers? I am curious abt the second one.
The first one i probably could of answered 2 years ago. haha. I'd have to dig in my notes tho. But it seems it has something to do with resonance and temp haha.
