An alkyne is an unsaturated hydrocarbon containing at least one carbon—carbon triple bond. The simplest acyclic alkynes with only one triple bond and no other functional groups form a homologous series with the general chemical formula CₙH₂ₙ−2

The first 10 alkynes are:

Ethyne C2H2.
Propyne C3H4.
Butyne C4H6.
Pentyne C5H8.
Hexyne C6H10.
Heptyne C7H12.
Octyne C8H14.
Nonyne C9H16.
