What is/are the major organic product(s) of the following reaction, Question 2 options: A) CH3CH2CCH Br B) CH3CCCH3 Br C) CH2CH2 HCCH Br D) HCCCH2CH2Br E) HCCBr

CH3CH2C≡CH

Explanation:

The particular reaction under study is known as the alkykation of acetylide ions. An acetylide ion can be alkykated using a suitable alkyl halide. The overall scheme of the reaction is;

CH≡C^- + RX > RC≡CH + X^-

This reaction is most effective when primary alkyl halides are used. It involves SN2 substitution of a halide in the alkyl halide by an acetylide ion. Secondary, tertiary or even bulky primary substrates are known to yield alkenes and alkynes owing to elimination by E2 mechanism.

idk i’m struggling too

c. orbital shape i hope this is correct
