Provide The major organic products for each reaction

Transcribed Image Text:### Reaction 1
**Starting Material:**
\( \text{CH}_3\text{C}\equiv\text{CH} \) (Propyne)
**Reagent:**
\( \text{2Cl}_2 \)
**Description:**
In this reaction, propyne (\( \text{CH}_3\text{C}\equiv\text{CH} \)) undergoes halogenation when treated with excess chlorine (\( \text{2Cl}_2 \)). This process typically results in the addition of four chlorine atoms, transforming the triple bond into a single bond.
---
### Reaction 2
**Starting Material:**
\( \text{CH}_3\text{C}\equiv\text{CH} \) (Propyne)
**Reagent:**
\( \text{2HCl} \)
**Description:**
Here, propyne reacts with hydrogen chloride (\( \text{2HCl} \)) in an addition reaction. This leads to the conversion of the alkyne into a geminal dihalide, where both chlorine atoms add to the same carbon.
---
### Reaction 3
**Starting Material:**
A cyclopentyl group attached to an alkyne.
**Reagents:**
1. \( \text{BH}_3, \text{THF} \)
2. \( \text{HO}^-, \text{H}_2\text{O}_2, \text{H}_2\text{O} \)
**Description:**
This reaction depicts a hydroboration-oxidation process. Initially, the alkyne undergoes hydroboration using borane (\( \text{BH}_3 \)) with tetrahydrofuran (THF) as a solvent. Following this, oxidation is carried out with hydrogen peroxide (\( \text{H}_2\text{O}_2 \)) in a basic medium (\( \text{HO}^- \)), transforming the alkyne into a corresponding enol, which tautomerizes to give the final product, an aldehyde or ketone depending on the substitution pattern.
