Chap 11 Flashcards
ALkynes have strong/weak intermolecular forces
weak
Because ______ ____ ___ ___ alkynes are electron rich, alkynes undergo addition with electrophiles
pie bonds are weak
Alkyne hydrohalogenation can create geminal dihalides
true
Geminal di halides have
two X bonds attached at the same carbon
Addition of two equivalents of X-X bonds can cause:
tetra halides (anti addition occurs) and bridges are still formed
*Markinovs rule is followed *An unstable enol is formed at first whicj rearanges to a carbonyl (ketone) group
Hydration- addition of H2O (1 eqivalent)
The main difference between Hydroboration and hydration in alkynes is the fact that the unstable enol group turns into an _______ in hydroboration while it turns to ______ in the hydration reaction
Aldehyde
Ketone
Ketones look like
while aldehydes lookj like
