Explanation / Answer

a) 1.Answer: (a)CH3(CH2)6CH2Br ( HBr Elimination takes place)

2.Answer: (c) BrCH2(CH2)3CH3 (HBr elimination takes place)

3. Answer: (a) (Lindlars catalyst: Is the formation of Alkynes to Cis-Alkenes).

b) 1) Answer: (d)

2) Answer: (c)

3) Answer:(b) (In this case Alkynes to Trans Alkenes formation takes place).
