Question
11
**Question 11:**

**Select the final product of the following reaction:**

A cycloheptyne starting material is reacted with H₂ and Pd-C, indicating a catalytic hydrogenation process. Four potential reaction products are shown as options:

1. A cycloheptene with a double bond in the side chain.
2. A cycloheptane with a fully hydrogenated side chain.
3. A cycloheptene with a different position of the double bond.
4. A cycloheptane with a palladium atom shown incorrectly integrated into the structure.

The task is to select the correct final product after the complete hydrogenation of the alkyne group present in the starting material. Complete saturation of the carbon-carbon triple bond typically leads to a fully saturated carbon chain (cycloheptane with a single-bonded side chain).
