Alkyne Reactions - Unlisted

This organic chemistry video tutorial provides a basic introduction into reactions of alkynes. It covers the hydrohalogenation mechanism of alkynes as well as the Ozonolysis reaction of alkynes. It includes synthesis problems with NaNH2 followed by an alkyl halide. It discusses the isomerization of alkynes using KOH and NaNH2 to produce internal alkynes and terminal alkynes. In addition, it mentions the reduction of alkynes using H2 with Pd/C, H2 with the Lindlar's catalysts, and the metal ammonia reduction reaction mechanism using Na/NH3. This video also discusses the hydroboration oxidation reaction of alkynes to produce aldehydes as well as the oxymercuration reaction mechanism of alkynes to produce ketones. It discusses the enol tautomerization reaction into ketones.
