        Catalyst used in the dimerisation of acetylene to prepare chloroprene is

    A)  \[HgS{{O}_{4}}+{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\]   

    B)  \[C{{u}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}}\]

    C)  \[C{{u}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}}+N{{H}_{4}}Cl\]    

    D)  \[C{{u}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}}+N{{H}_{4}}OH\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    \[\underset{acetylene}{\mathop{2HC\equiv CH}}\,\xrightarrow[N{{H}_{4}}Cl]{C{{u}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}}}\underset{vinyl\text{ }acetylene}{\mathop{{{H}_{2}}C=CH-C\equiv CH}}\,\] \[\xrightarrow[{}]{HCl}\underset{chloroprene}{\mathop{C{{H}_{2}}-CH-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  | \\  Cl \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,=C{{H}_{2}}}}\,\xrightarrow[{}]{polymerisation}\]  \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,neoprene \\  (synthetic\text{ }rubber) \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{-\left[ C{{H}_{2}}-CH=\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  | \\  Cl \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,-C{{H}_{2}} \right]{{-}_{n}}}}\,\]
