Give hydrogenation and halogenation reaction of alkyne.

Answer»

SOLUTION :(a) Hydrogenation of alkyne or addition of DIHYDROGEN in alkyne : Heating of alkyne with dihydrogen in presence of catalyst gives alkane.
`HC-=CH+H_(2) underset(DELTA)OVERSET("Pt/Pd/Ni)rarr [H_(2)C=CH_(2)] overset(H_(2))rarr H_(3)C-CH_(3)` (Eq. (i))

(b) Halogenation of alkyne or addtion of halogen in alkyne : On addition reaction of alkyne with bromine solution prepared in carbon TETRACHLORIDE `(C Cl_(4))` gives tetra bromo alkane, during this reaction bromine is utilized completely and hence, orange red colour of bromine is removed. This reaction is identification test for unsaturated hydrocarbon.
