An organic compound C4H6 on ozonolysis gives HCHO, CO2, CH3CHO. Compound will be :
A.H C CH CH CH
B.CH –CH C CH✓ Correct
C.CH –C C CH
Explanation
Ozonolysis can be defined as the oxidation of alkenes, alkynes in presence of ozone to give aldehyde, ketones, or carboxylic acids as a product. The following reaction is shown below: 3 2 2 3 3 2 O Zn/H O CH CH C CH HCHO CO CH CHO -> Hence, the correct option is (b).
