Solution

The correct option is C 2-hexyne
2-hexyne has a maximum boiling point. The melting and boiling points of alkynes are slightly higher than those of corresponding alkanes and alkenes.
This is because alkynes, being linear, are more closely packed in space than alkanes and alkenes.

Hence, option $D$ is correct.
