Question

Predict the initial and final products for the following reaction involving 2-pentyne Hint: the products are isomers and in equilibrium with each other. Initial Products Final Products H2SO4 HgSO4 For hydration of an unsymmetrical alkyne, a C-O bond may form at either carbon atom of the carbon-carbon triple bond, yielding different products. As such, there is another enol to identify Likewise, this ketone is correct, and there is a second ketone product to identify

Answer 1

Initial products: Final products H2O H2SO4 HgSO4 но Explanati on: Addition of H20 to alkyne in presence of H2SO4, HgSO4 produces enol products initi ally and produces ketone as final products.
