which sequence of reactions work best in synthesizing cis-3-nonene
please explain in steps and please do not use line structure
The acidic H atom of 1-butyne is abstracted with soda amide to form but-1-yn-1-ide.
But-1-yn-1-ide reacts with 1-bromopentane to form non-3-yne. This is a nucleophilic substitution reaction and involves SN2 mechanism.
The selective hydrogenation of non-3-yne with hydrogen in presence of Lindlar catalyst, Pd gives the final product cis-3-nonene. Here, the carbon carbon tripple bond is selectively reduced to cis double bond.
