    Catalyst used in dimerisation of acetylene to prepare chloroprene is

    A)  \[HgS{{O}_{4}}+{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\]     

    B)  \[C{{u}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}}\]

    C)  \[C{{u}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}}+N{{H}_{4}}Cl\]     

    D)  \[C{{u}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}}+N{{H}_{4}}OH\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                     \[2HC\equiv CH\xrightarrow[N{{H}_{4}}Cl]{C{{u}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}}}\underset{\text{vinyl}\,\text{acetylene}}{\mathop{{{H}_{2}}C=CH-C\equiv CH}}\,\] \[\xrightarrow{HCl}C{{H}_{2}}=\underset{\text{chloroprene}}{\mathop{CH-\underset{Cl}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,=C{{H}_{2}}}}\,\] \[\xrightarrow{\text{polymerisation}}-{{(C{{H}_{2}}-CH=\underset{Cl}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,-C{{H}_{2}}-)}_{n}}\]
