Alkynes on reduction with sodium in liqu...

Alkynes on reduction with sodium in liquid ammonia form trans alkenes. Will the butene thus formed on reduction of 2-butyne show the geometrical isomerism ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

since 2-butene is capable of showing geometrical isomerism, therefore, reduction of 2-butyne with sodium in liquid ammonia will give trans-2-butene.
