Ch 9 contents
Summary

Alkynes contain the doubly unsaturated CºC functional group.
Terminal alkynes,  R-CºC-H, are quite acidic for hydrocarbons and can be deprotonated to form a carbanion that can then be alkylated.
Like alkenes (C=C), the alkyne CºC undergoes a variety of addition reactions (review)
