Question

.Using arrows to show the flow of electrons, write a stepwise mechanism for the following reaction 

The image depicts a chemical reaction involving organic molecules. **Description:** - On the left side, there is an alkyne molecule, characterized by a carbon-carbon triple bond. - A plus sign indicates the addition of a second reactant, which in this case is a compound featuring another triple bond, seen across two lines merging into three. - An arrow pointing to the right signifies the transformation that occurs across "4 Steps". - The product on the right shows a more complex alkane molecule with two hydroxyl (OH) groups attached to different carbon atoms. The configuration indicates stereochemical details, with one OH group in a wedge indicating a bond coming out of the plane, and the other in a dashed line indicating a bond going behind the plane. This reaction illustrates a multi-step synthesis involving alkynes and results in the formation of a diol, highlighting stereochemistry transformations usually seen in organic chemistry settings.
