29. A probable mechanism for the Knoevenagel reaction is as follows: an ammonium salt reacts with an aldehyde to afford an imine, which then reacts with a nucleophile. The isomerization of imine and enamine is a well-known process, which leads to the racemic imine. For the above reaction mechanism, see the reviews in ref 11.
