Which of the following reagents would convert but-1-yne into but-2-yne?

A

ammoniacal `CuCl`

B

`(NaNH_2)/(NH_3(1))`

C

ammoniacal `AgNO_3`

D

Ethanolic `KOH`, heat

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Acetylene homologues isomerize when heated with ethanolic KOH, the tripe bond moving towards the centre of the chain:
`CH_3CH_2C-=CHunderset(KOH)overset("Ehanolic")to[CH_3CH=C=CH_2]toCH_3C-=CCH_3`
