why does the aldol condensation convert the carbonyl to an OH, but the claisen condensation doesnt?
on fischer projections----- does CHO have priortiy of C-OH-CH because the aldehyde carbon is ranked as 2 0xygens C:: OOC versus C: OCC
- again, for a fischer projection, if a compound is meso, for example a 5 carbon fischer- carbon 3 is meso if it has the same groups above and below it- does it matter if the groups above or below are on the left or right side.. i mean

CHO CO2H
H---------OH R H-----------------OH R
l l
OH----------H Meso?? vs. H-----------------OH Meso???
l l
OH----------H R H------------------OH S or is this not meso because of the CONFIGS?
