Choose the most appropriate reagent(s) for the conversion of propyne and 2-methyl-1-tosyloxypropane to 5-methyl-2-hexyne. nanh2, nh3 naoh, h2o koch2ch3, hoch2ch3 h2so4 nh3

NaNH2, NH3

Explanation:

Choose the most appropriate reagent(s) for the conversion of propyne and 2-methyl-1-tosyloxy propane to 5-methyl-2-hexyne. NaNH2, NH3 NaOH, H2O KOCH2CH3, HOCH2CH3 H2SO4 NH3

answer is  NaNH2, NH3

NaNH2, NH3 is strong to to convert propyne into a nucleophilic salt which in turn displaced tosylate in  2-methyl-1-tosyloxy propane to yield  5-methyl-2-hexyne.

Propyne and 5-methyl-2-hexyne. are still of the same homologous series,, so no triple bond is broken during the reaction

The essence of a reagent is to bring the reaction to its end point

"hydrogen bonding is the attraction of h atoms in the water molecule (slight + charge) to o atoms in a neighboring water molecule (slight - charge); it is a weak interatomic force. but it is still strong enough to the water molecules "stick" together."
