Which of the following compound will not give a
precipitate with Tollen's reagent
(1) ethyne
(2) 1-butyne
(3) 3-methyl-1-butyne (4) 1-pentene
Answers
Answer:
I think Pentene
all 3 option have so carbon
@ 1-pentene has sp^2 Carbon
it is not so reactive
(3) 3-methyl-1-butyne and (4) 1-pentene. Both 3-methyl-1-butene and 1-pentene will not give a precipitate with Tollen's reagent.
Explanation:
Both 3-methyl-1-butene and 1-pentene will not give a precipitate with Tollen's reagent.
An alkaline solution of ammoniacal silver nitrate is known as Tollen's reagent.
The following are tested with it: aldehyde, hydroxy ketone, terminal alkyne. With the aforementioned solutions, it forms a white precipitate when tested.
However, when tested with 1-pentene and 3-methyl-1-butene, it does not produce a white precipitate. Both 3-methyl-1-butene and 1-pentene contain neither a terminal alkyne nor an aldehyde group as well as a hydroxy ketone.
As a result, when tested with the tollen's reagent, it will not precipitate. Tollen's reagent will precipitate silver alkynes when mixed with a terminal alkyne.
