(a) oct-3-yne to cis-oct-3-ene.
(b) pent-2-yne to trans-pent-2-ene.
(c) cis-cyclodecene to trans-cyclodecene.
(d) but-1-yne to cis-hex-3-ene.
What reaction would acetylene likely to undergo if it were kept at for too long?
Disiamylborane adds only once to alkynes by virtue of its two bulky secondary isoamyl groups. Disiamylborane is prepared by the reaction of BH3. THF with an alkene.
(a) Draw the structural formulas of the reagents and the products in the preparation of disiamylborane.
(b) Explain why the reaction in part (a) goes only as far as the dialkylborane. Why is Sia3B not formed?
(a)Count the elements of unsaturation in cicutoxin, capillin, and panaxytriol.
(b) Draw structural formulas of at least two alkynes of each molecular formula.
