Chapter 11, Problem 11.53P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The product that is formed by the acid-catalyzed hydration of CH3CH2CH2CCOCH3 is to be predicted. A stepwise mechanism for the formation of the product is to be drawn.

Concept Introduction: A terminal alkyne reacts with H2O, H2SO4 (strong acid) and HgSO4 to form a ketone. In this case, hydrogen atom and OH will get attach to the less substituted carbon atom to form a stable carbocation.
