Solution
The correct options are A alkaline KMnO4 at room temperature B selenium dioxide DO3 and Zn
The reaction is as follows:
CH3−C≡C−CH3→CH3−CO−CO−CH3
This conversion is affected by cold dilute KMnO4 (Baeyer's reagent), SeO2 or ozonolysis in the presence of zinc dust. Hg2 in the presence of H2SO4converts alkyne into ketone only. The reaction is as follows:
