Concept introduction:
Symmetrical internal alkynes yield an aldehyde as a single product during ozonolysis. The alkyne given can be converted in to a higher symmetrical alkyne by treating with NaNH2 in NH3 and RCl. The symmetrical alkyne thus obtained upon ozonolysis followed by reduction with Zn and acetic acid give an aldehyde as the only product.

Answer to Problem 36AP
The terminal alkyne can be converted into an aldehyde through the steps shown.
Explanation of Solution
The alkyne is first converted in to a higher alkyne by treating it with NaNH2 and then with RCl. The higher alkyne, being symmetrical, upon ozonolysis followed by reduction with Zn and acetic acid gets cleaved to give the aldehyde required as the product.

Answer to Problem 36AP
The alkyne can be converted into a secondary alkyl halide through the steps shown.
Explanation of Solution
The alkyne is first converted in to an alkene by treating it with H2 in the presence of Pd-BaSO4catalyst. Addition of HCl to alkenes follows Markovnikov regiochemistry. The chlorine atom adds to the carbon with one substituent and H adds to the terminal carbon without substituents to yield the product required.

e)
Interpretation:
How to convert (if necessary using more than one step) an alkyne into a primary alcohol that contains one more carbon is to be shown.
Concept introduction:
Alkynes can be converted into a primary alcohol through the following steps. The alkyne is first reduced to an alkene using H2 and Pd-BaSO4. Hydrohalogenation converts the alkene in to an alkyl halide which when treated with NaOH yields the required alcohol.
To state:
How to convert an alkyne into a primary alcohol, if necessary using more than one step.
Answer to Problem 36AP
The alkyne can be converted in to the alcohol through the steps shown.
Explanation of Solution
The alkyne gets reduced to an alkene when treated with H2 and Pd-BaSO4. The alkene gets converted in to a primary alkyl halide when treated with HCl in the presence of a peroxide following anti Markovnikov regiochemistry. The alkyl halide yields the alcohol when the nucleophile OH- displaces Cl- when treated with NaOH.
The alkyne can be converted in to the alcohol through the steps shown.

Answer to Problem 36AP
The alkyne can be converted in to its next higher alkyne through the steps shown.
Explanation of Solution
The alkyne, being acidic, when treated with NaNH2 in liquid ammonia is converted in to the sodium acetylide. The acetylide upon treatment with methyl chloride yields the next higher alkyne.

To state:
How to convert an alkyne into a ketone, if necessary, using more than one step.
Answer to Problem 36AP
The alkyne can be converted in to a ketone using the step shown.
Explanation of Solution
Addition of water takes place to the triple bond when the alkyne is treated with dilute H2SO4 in the presence of HgSO4 following Markovnikov regiochemistry. The OH adds on to the carbon with one substituent and H adds on to the terminal carbon with no substituent to yield an enol. The enol then undergoes tautomerization to give the ketone as the product.
The alkyne can be converted in to a ketone using the step shown.

How to convert an alkyne into an epoxide, if necessary using more than one step.
Answer to Problem 36AP
The alkyne can be converted in to an epoxide using the steps shown.
RCO3H=meta - chloroperoxybenzoic acid
Explanation of Solution
The terminal alkyne when reduced with H2 in the presence of Pd-BaSO4 yield the corresponding alkene. When the alkene is treated with meta -chloroperoxybenzoic acid, transfer of an oxygen atom from the acid to the double bond in alkene takes place with syn stereochemistry to yield the epoxide.
The alkyne can be converted in to the epoxide through the steps shown.
RCO3H=meta - chloroperoxybenzoic acid.

Units Valuearrow_forwardLearning Goal: This question reviews the format for writing an element's written symbol. Recall that written symbols have a particular format. Written symbols use a form like this: 35 Cl 17 In this form the mass number, 35, is a stacked superscript. The atomic number, 17, is a stacked subscript. "CI" is the chemical symbol for the element chlorine. A general way to show this form is: It is also correct to write symbols by leaving off the atomic number, as in the following form: atomic number mass number Symbol 35 Cl or mass number Symbol This is because if you write the element symbol, such as Cl, you know the atomic number is 17 from that symbol. Remember that the atomic number, or number of protons in the nucleus, is what defines the element. Thus, if 17 protons are in the nucleus, the element can only be chlorine. Sometimes you will only see 35 C1, where the atomic number is not written. Watch this video to review the format for written symbols. In the following table each column…arrow_forward
