butyne is more polar than butene, so bp is higher..
why is it more polar ?

which butene? 1-butene, trans 2-butene, cis 2-butene will all have different boiling points.

which butyne? 1 or 2?

Might have better van der waals overlap with butyne (not as kinky as butene, therefore can stack with each other better).
