Concept:Catalytic hydrogenation with
Pd/C gives syn addition, producing cis-alkenes.
Dissolving metal reduction with
Na/liq NH3 gives anti addition, producing trans-alkenes.
Explanation:But-2-yne (
CH3C≡CCH3) is treated separately:
(i)
H2/Pd/C: syn addition of two H atoms yields cis-2-butene (X).
(ii)
Na/liq NH3: anti addition via radical intermediate yields trans-2-butene (Y).
Now analyze each statement:
A. X and Y are stereoisomers – yes, they are cis-trans isomers. Hence correct.
B. Dipole moment of X is zero – false, cis-2-butene has a net dipole moment because both methyl groups are on same side. Hence incorrect.
C. Boiling point of X is higher than Y – true, cis isomer is more polar and has higher boiling point. Hence correct.
D. X and Y react with
O3/Zn+H2O to give different products – false, both yield acetaldehyde (
CH3CHO) as the only carbonyl product. Hence incorrect.
Thus the incorrect statements are B and D.
Answer:Option A: B and D Only
