Question
Which one of the following statements best explains the
greater acidity of terminal alkynes (RCCH) compared
with monosubstituted alkenes (RCH=CH2)?
A) The sp-hybridized carbons of the alkyne are less
electronegative than the sp2 carbons of the alkene.
B) The two p bonds of the alkyne are better able to
stabilize the negative charge of the anion by
resonance.
C) The sp-hybridized carbons of the alkyne are
more electronegative than the sp2 carbons of
the alkene.
D) The question is incorrect - alkenes are more acidic
than alkynes.
The stronger the acid, the weaker its conjugate base

There is a catalyst that will catalyze the hydrogenation

It is called the Lindlar catalyst and consists of
palladium supported on CaCO3, which has been
poisoned with lead acetate and quinoline.

Natural Products
Polyynes
Compound 1 is isolated from the root and bark of
mistletoe, Paramacrolobium caeruleum
(Loranthaceae). The stems and leaves of members of
this family have been used for the treatment of cancer
in Indonesia.
Compound 2, thiarubrine B, has been isolated from
Giant Ragweed, Ambrosia trifida. Native cultures in
Canada and Africa use plants with similar natural
products to treat skin infections and intestinal
parasites.
Compound 3, oplopandiolacetate, is found in the bark
and roots of Devil's club, Oplopanax horridus. It is
used medicinally by native Americans to treat a
variety of ailments. Other polyynes found in plants
include oenanthotoxin, cicutoxin, and falcarinol .
Compound 4, dihydromatricaria acid, is found in the soldier
beetle, Cantharidae, who are related to the Lampyridae or firefly
family, but unable to produce light. They provide biological
control of a number of insect pests including grasshoppers,
aphids, caterpillars and other soft bodied insects.
Histrionicotoxin is isolated from the skin of frogs in the
Dendrobatidae family. It comes from insects in their
diet and is used by indigenous South American tribes
as a poison on arrows.
