The correct Answer is:
To prepare the compound \( R-C \equiv CH \) from Grignard's reagent, we need to follow a series of steps involving the reaction of Grignard reagents with alkynes. Let's break down the solution step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Understanding Grignard Reagents**: - Grignard reagents have the general formula \( R-MgX \), where \( R \) is an alkyl or aryl group, \( Mg \) is magnesium, and \( X \) is a halogen (like Cl, Br, or I). - They are nucleophilic, meaning the carbon attached to magnesium has a partial negative charge, making it reactive towards electrophiles. 2. **Identify the Target Compound**: - We want to synthesize \( R-C \equiv CH \), which is a terminal alkyne. The terminal hydrogen is acidic, which is important for the next steps. 3. **Choosing the Right Reaction**: - To form \( R-C \equiv CH \), we can start with a terminal alkyne, such as \( CH \equiv CH \) (ethyne or acetylene). - The reaction involves the addition of a Grignard reagent to this terminal alkyne. 4. **Reacting Grignard Reagent with Terminal Alkyne**: - When we react \( CH \equiv CH \) with a Grignard reagent, such as \( CH_3MgBr \), the nucleophilic \( CH_3^- \) from the Grignard reagent will attack the terminal hydrogen of the alkyne. - This results in an acid-base reaction where the terminal hydrogen is removed, forming \( CH_3C \equiv C^- \) (the anion) and releasing methane \( (CH_4) \). 5. **Introducing Alkyl Halide**: - Now, we need to introduce an alkyl halide \( R-I \) (where \( R \) is any alkyl group) to the anion \( CH_3C \equiv C^- \). - The negative charge on the carbon will attack the carbon of the alkyl halide, displacing the iodine and forming the desired terminal alkyne \( R-C \equiv CH \). 6. **Final Product**: - The final product after the reaction will be \( R-C \equiv CH \), which is the target compound. ### Conclusion: Thus, the correct option for preparing \( R-C \equiv CH \) from Grignard's reagent is to use a terminal alkyne like \( CH \equiv CH \) and react it with \( R-I \) after the initial reaction with the Grignard reagent.
