Consider the formation of lactone (cyclic ester) 6 from 5 5 6 a. Draw a specific base-catalyzed mechanism. b. Draw a general base-catalyzed mechanism c. Which base would be more likely to exhibit a specific base-catalyzed mechanism, \( \mathrm{NaOMe} \) or \( \mathrm{Et}_{3} \mathrm{~N} \) ? Explain your answer in a sentence.
