To solve this problem, we need to understand the reaction of an alkyne with KMnOHThis is an oxidative cleavage reaction where the alkyne is cleaved to form carboxylic acids.Given reaction:Cyclohexylacetylene (CC-H) reacts with KMnOHSteps:1. The triple bond in the alkyne is oxidatively cleaved by KMnOH2. Each carbon of the triple bond is converted into a carboxylic acid group.For the given compound:• The alkyne group is attached to a cyclohexyl group on one side and a hydrogen on the other.• Oxidative cleavage will convert the alkyne into two carboxylic acids: - The carbon attached to the cyclohexyl group becomes cyclohexanecarboxylic acid. - The terminal carbon (attached to hydrogen) becomes formic acid, which further oxidizes to CO and HO.Thus, the major product is cyclohexanecarboxylic acid.Therefore, the correct option is Option 4:Cyclohexanecarboxylic acid (Cyclohexane-COOH).
