Formation intermediate of radical anion: Formation and use of vinyl radicals: Formation and use of vinylic anion Formation of the trans-alkene Ans:
Reduce Alkynes to trans-Alkenes
An alkyne can be described as an unsaturated hydrocarbon that has a triple carbon-carbon bond ( ). In the presence of sodium or lithium, the carbon-carbon triple bonds can react to form a trans-alkene with a carbon-carbon ( ).
Anti-addition:
Anti-addition can be defined as adding two substitutes to the opposite ends of a triple-bonded to create the anti-addition product.
Reaction of alkyne and Li metal
A trans-alkene of an alkyne is formed by combining it with lithium metal in an aromatic ethylamine solvent. The solvent can also act as a reducing agent and then the ammonium chloride salt is added. This is an example:
