Q. Under which one of the following conditions, does the reaction, $CH \equiv CH + CH_{3}OH\overset{\ \ \ ?\ \ \ \ }{\rightarrow}CH_{3}O - CH = CH_{2}$ take place?
A) $\frac{NH_{4}OH}{80℃}$
B) $\frac{Conc.H_{2}SO_{4}}{160℃}$
C) $\frac{Anhydrous\ ZnCl_{2}}{150℃}$
D) $\frac{CH_{3}OK}{160 - 200℃}$
Explanation
(d)
$CH \equiv CH + CH_{3}OH$
$\underset{160 - 200℃}{\overset{\ \ \ CH_{3}OK\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ }{\rightarrow}}CH_{3}O - CH = CH_{2}$
