There are 14 alkynes if stereoisomers are ignored. Four of the 14 alkynes have an asymmetric center,
so each of these can have either the
R
or
S
configuration. Therefore, if stereoisomers are included, there
would be 18 alkynes.

This symmetrical alkyne will give the greatest yield of the desired ketone.
Because the reactant is not a terminal alkyne, the reaction can take place without the mercuric ion
catalyst.
