An alkyne with five carbon atoms per molecule when passed through dilute sulphuric acid containing mercuric sulphate gives a compound which forms an oxime but has no effect on Fehling's solution. The compound on oxidation gives dimethyl acetic acid. It reacts with sodamide to form a hydrocarbon. What is the structure of the alkyne ?
