In an addition reaction of an alkene or alkyne, a reactant, such as bromine (Br2Br2), hydrogen (H2H2), or water (H2OH2O), is added to the two atoms that form the multiple bond.
When there is a triple bond, the first equivalent is added to form a new bond at each atom of the multiple bond, and the species formed has a double bond. The second equivalent will again add to the two atoms that form the multiple bond, and an alkane is formed, as shown:
CH3C≡CCH3+Cl2→ClCl| | CH3C=CCH3+Cl2→ClCl| |CH3C−CCH3| |ClClClClClCl| | | |CH3C≡CCH3+Cl2→CH3C=CCH3+Cl2→CH3C−CCH3| |ClCl
For this problem, draw all hydrogen atoms explicitly.
Part A
Draw the product of the reaction
CH3CH2CH2CH2C≡CCH3+2Br2→?CH3CH2CH2CH2C≡CCH3+2Br2→?
Draw the molecule on the canvas by choosing buttons from the Tools (for bonds), Atoms, and Advanced Template toolbars. The single bond is active by default. Include all hydrogen atoms.
