Question

The reaction below shows the reaction of a strong acid with an alkyne. 2 HCI -C?CH CH3 CI CI Assuming that strong acids add to alkynes in the same manner as they add to alkenes, write a mechanism for the reaction step below. Use curved arrows to show electron reorganization. Where relevant, a pi bond has two hot spots. When you draw a curved arrow, use the hot spot nearest the carbon to which the new bond is formed. Arrow-pushing Instructions H + c=c CI ?
