Which of the following is least preffered to make higher alkynes fom sodium acetylide?A. `CH_3CH_2CH_2I`B. `CH_3CH_3CH_2Br`C. `CH_3CH_2CH_2Cl`D. both (2) and (3)

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`Na^(+)CH-=C^(-):+CH_3CH_2CH_2Cl to HC-=CH+CH_3CH=CH_2+NaCl`
Alkynides are powerful bases but mild nucleophiles. Hence, `E2` eliminations are very competitive with `S_N2` displacements. Relative to `Br^(-)` or `I^(-)`,`Cl^(-)` is a poorer leaving group in `S_N2` reactions. Moreover, on account of higher `-I` affect, Cl is a better acid-strengthening group than `Br` or `I`. Thus, it facilitates the abstractions of `beta` proton from the alkyl halide. Consequently, with `RCl,E2` elimination is the dominant reaction.

`CH_3CHBrCH_2Brunderset(on e equival ent)overset(alc. KOH)toP` identify the main product.A. `CH_3C-=CH`B. `CH_2=CHCH_2Br`C. `CH_3CBr=CH_2`D. `CH_3CH=CHBr`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
In E2 elimination, the more acidic H is removed preferentially. The negative inductive inductive effect of the Br atoms increases the acidity of the H atoms on the C atoms to which the Br atoms are bonded. Thus, compound (2) is not obtained because its formation involves the removal of least acidic the H atom. A little amount of compound (3) is formed because presence of `CH_3` gourp with positive inductive effect decreases the acidic character of H on C-2. In addition, there is statistical effect: two H on C-1 relative to one H on C-2 Propyne is not formed as we are using only one equivalent of KOH.

Acetylene does not react withA. `CH_3Li`B. `CH_3COONa`C. `NaNH_2`D. `NaH`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Acid-base reactions always go from the stronger acids and bases to the weaker ones. Therefore acetylene will only react with bases that are converted to acids weaker than acetylene, the order of acidic strength is
`CH_3CO_2HgtCH-=CHgtNH_3gtCH_4approxH_2`
Thus, acetylene does not react with `CH_3COONa`.

Acetylene is acidic but it does not react with NaOH or KOH. Give reason.

Answer» Acetylene is very weak acid. The value of dissociation constant `K_(a)` is very low `(10^(-25))`. Thus, it does not react with alkalies like `NaOH` or KOH, but react with very strong base like sodamide `(NaNH_(2))`, active metals like Na,K.
