MANNICH REACTION:
* It Involve the condensation of a compound having active methylene group (active H-atom) with formaldehyde &
H-N< (H–N<  NH3 or, NH2R or NHR2 ,but not used NR3) in the presence of acid and formed amino methyl
derivative or substituted amino methyl derivative (Mannich base) is called Mannich Reaction.

LDA (LITHIUM DIISOPROPYLAMIDE):
* It is strong base but weak nucleophilile.
* It is Bulky base
* Abstract less sterically hindard acidic H-atom
* Since, it is a strong base so it can also abstract very less acidic H-atom.

In the reaction Grignard reagent is not formed, because of, during the reaction high temperature is required which
is greater than boiling point of Et2O but if THF is used then.
