Step 1
Given:
pKa value of (CH3CH2CH2C≡CH) is 25 .
To find the bases to deprotonates the alkyne.
Explanation:
The base contains pKa value higher than 25 will only can deprotonate the alkyne. Then only the equilibrium favours the product.
So, first to determine the conjugate acid of the given bases and its pKa value.
Pka value of conjugate acids is higher than 25 is needed to deprotonate the alkyne.

- Penicillins and other β-lactam antibiotics typically develop a resistance to bacteria due to bacterial synthesis of β-lactamase enzymes. Tazobactam, however, is able to inhibit the activity of the β-lactamase by trapping it, thereby preventing resistance from developing.
