The isomerism of 2-butyne to 1-butyne can be achieved by treatment with:

A

hydrochloric acid

B

ammoniacal silver nitrate

C

ammoniacal cuprous chloride

D

ethanolic potassium hydroxide

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

On heating with alcoholic KOH or `NaNH_(2)` in an inert solvent, the triple bond of but-1-yne gets shifted to but-2-yne.
`underset("Bul-1-yne")(CH_(3)CH_(2)-C -=CH) underset(Delta)overset("alc. KOH")to underset("Bul-2-yne")(CH_(3)-C -=C -CH)`
