One of these molecules, an alkene, and carbon monoxide react to form a cyclopentenone in the Pauson-Khand reaction.
One of these molecules, an alkene, and carbon monoxide react to form a cyclopentenone in the Pauson-Khand reaction. Only terminal, not internal, examples of these molecules display C-H stretches in IR spectroscopy. Hydroboration or oxymercuration of these molecules results in an enol that tautomerizes to an aldehyde or ketone. The cyclization of these molecules with an azide is a widely-applied click reaction. Terminal forms of these molecules have a pKa of 25. Lindlar's catalyst can reduce them to cis-alkenes. The simplest example of this class of molecule is acetylene, or ethyne. For 10 points, name this class of molecules containing a carbon-carbon triple bond.
