Nucleophilic addition can occur with alkynes that bear strong electron-attracting

Chapter 9, Problem 9.42

(choose chapter or problem)

Nucleophilic addition can occur with alkynes that bear strong electron-attracting substituents such as CF3 on the triple bond. Predict the product of nucleophilic addition of CH3OD to 3,3,3-trifluoropropyne. The stereochemistry of addition is anti, and the first step in the mechanism is bond formation between CH3O and one of the carbons of the triple bond.
