Explain : "Why alkyne compound gives electrophilic addition reaction ?" |
|
Answer» Solution :In alkyne compound triple bond between TWO carbon atoms has two `pi` bond, and the negative charged `pi` electron cloud is far away from the closed edges. So `pi` bond electrophilically attracted towards `pi` electron and hence it gives electrophilic reactions. Also, `pi` electrons have weak force of attraction towards centre and hence, `pi` bond is EASILY break and thus, electrophilic reactant from `pi` bond and give addition PRODUCT. So, "alkyne easily gives electrophilic addition reaction".  Alkyne gives all electrophilic addition reaction such as HYDROGENATION with `H_(2)`, halogenation with `X_(2)`, hydro-halogenation with HX and Hydration with `H_(2)O`. |
