Reaction of terminal alkyne with ammoniacal silver nitrate or copper 1 nitrate
Alkynes with a triple bond at the end of the chain react with ammoniacal silver nitrate or ammoniacal copper I chloride to form white precipitate or red precipitate respectively.
Example
This reaction is used to distinguish alkynes with a triple bond at the end from those with a triple bond in the middle of the chain.
For example CH3CH2C ≡ CH forms a white precipitate with ammoniacal silver nitrate while CH3C ≡ C CH3 does not.
