Concept explainers
a)
Interpretation:
The alkyne which can be used as a starting material for preparing methyl-n-propyl ketone is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Addition of water to triple bonds occurs to yield an enol initially as the product. The enol then tautomerizes to give a ketone as the final product. Terminal
To state:
The alkyne which can be used as a starting material for preparing methyl-n-propyl ketone.
b)
Interpretation:
The alkyne which can be used as a starting material for preparing diethyl ketone is to be stated.

- CCH H20, H2SO4 H9SO4 CH3 Alkynes do not react directly with aqueous acid as do alkenes, but will do so in the presence of mercury(II) sulfate as a Lewis acid catalyst. The reaction occurs with Markovnikov regiochemistry, so the OH group adds to the more highly substituted carbon and the H adds to the less highly substituted carbon. The initial product of the reaction is a vinyl alcohol, also called an enol. The enol immediately rearranges to a more stable ketone via tautomerization. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the mechanism.
