Solution
The correct options are A 1. Br2/CCl4; 2.NaNH2/NH3 3. LindlarPd/CH2 for cis; Li,NH3 for trans D 1. Br2/CCl4; 2.NaNH2/NH3 3. LindlarPd/CH2 for cis; Na,NH3 for trans Start with any isomer and bromine addition across the double bond of hex-3-ene gives 3,4-dibromohexane.
From the above compound, get to hex-3-yne by dehydrohalogenation:
Getting to hex-3-yne is the key. From there it is easy!
