Hydrocarbons - Result Question 62

Passage

Schemes $1$ and $2$ describe sequential transformation of alkynes M and N. Consider only the major products formed in each step for both schemes.

47. The product $X$ is

Answer:

Correct Answer: 47. (a)

Solution:

  1. PLAN: This problem can be solved by using the concept of nucleophilic substitution reaction, oxidation reaction and reduction reaction including strength of nucleophile and regioselectivity.

Reaction of Scheme $1$ can be completed as

Among two nacked nucleophilic group I and II, II is more nucleophilica and then will react selectively as follows

Hence, using the concept of regioselectivity we come on the conclusion that final product is correctly represented by structure (a).
