Chemistry - Hydrocarbon Question with Solution | TestHub

First step of the reaction involves acid base reaction to form $\mathrm{n}-\mathrm{Bu}-\mathrm{C}\equiv {\mathrm{C}}^{-}{\mathrm{Li}}^{+}$.This is due to the presence of acidic hydrogen in the reactant Hex-1-yne.

Second step involves nucleophilic substitution to form a higher alkyne.

Third step involves hydrogenation of alkyne by using lindlar catalyst to form cis-alkene
