In 3, 3-dimethylhex-1-ene-4-yne, there are ____sp3, ____sp2 and ____ sp hybridised carbon atoms respectively :
(A)4, 2, 2✓ Correct
(B)3, 3, 2
(C)2, 4, 2
(D)2, 2, 4
Answer: (A)
Solution
3,3-Dimethylhex-1-ene-4-yne is CHX2=CH−C(CHX3)X2−C≡C−CHX3. The doubly bonded carbons CHX2=CH are sp2 (two carbons) and the triply bonded carbons −C≡C− are sp (two carbons). The quaternary C-3, the methyl at the end of the alkyne and the two branch methyls are all sp3 (four carbons). The molecule contains four sp3, two sp2 and two sp hybridised carbon atoms respectively.
