In the reaction
X and Y are
X=1-Butyne; Y=3-Hexyne
X=2-Butyne; Y=3-Hexyne
X=2-Butyne; Y=3-Hexyne
X=1-Butyne; Y=2-Hexyne
As we learnt in
Birch Reduction -
Alkynes on reduction with sodium in liquid NH3 form trans alkene.
- wherein
X=1-Butyne, Y= 3-Hexyne
Option 1)
X=1-Butyne; Y=3-Hexyne
This option is correct
Option 2)
X=2-Butyne; Y=3-Hexyne
This option is incorrect
Option 3)
X=2-Butyne; Y=3-Hexyne
This option is incorrect
Option 4)
X=1-Butyne; Y=2-Hexyne
This option is incorrect
