    Which of the following is used for the conversion of 2-hexyne into trans-2-hexene?

    A) \[{{H}_{2}}Pd/BaS{{O}_{4}}\]   

    B)        \[{{H}_{2}},Pt{{O}_{2}}\]

    C) \[NaB{{H}_{4}}\]             

    D)        \[liq-N{{H}_{3}}/{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}OH\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[{{H}_{2}}/Pd/BaS{{O}_{4}}\]reduces an alkyne to cis-alkene, \[{{H}_{2}}/Pt\]reduces it to alkane,\[NaB{{H}_{4}}\]. Does not reduce an alkyne. Reduction of an alkyne by active metal in liq. \[N{{H}_{3}}\] gives trans-alkene.
