Title: drawing reactions
Post by: damac on February 14, 2005, 03:03:39 PM

propyne should be reacted with silver or cupric chloride so that it's acidic hydrogen gets displaced by silver or copper.react the product with 2-bromo propane.bromine being a good leaving group would combine with silver of propyne and you would get 2-yne,4-methyl pentyne.follow it by sodium ethanol process by which alcohol will be formed and react it with RED P+IODINE

How would this reaction be drawn?

does this look correct?

CH3C(triple bond)CH + AgCl --> CHC(triple bond)CAg
CHC(triple bond)CAg + CH3CHBrCH3 --> CH3C(triple bond)CCH(CH3)2

please help me with this guys at least set me in the right direction

I am currently taking this Organic Chemistry Course through distance education so i dont really have to many people to ask these questions to.  And the text book isnt all that amazing
