Step by step solution

01

Structure of Alkynes

The following steps have to be followed while naming alkynes,

Find the parent name by choosing the longest carbon chain and give preference to the functional groups. Then add substituents to the appropriate carbon and the alkyne must be mentioned by the suffix -yne.
