Which alkene on ozonolysis gives CH3CH2CHO and CH3COCH3?
A.CH3CH2CH = C (CH3)2✓ Correct
B.CH3CH2CH = CHCH2CH3
C.CH3CH2CH=CHCH3
D.(CH3)2 C = CHCH3
Explanation
On passing ozone through a solution of olefin in an organic solvent, an ozonide is obtained. The ozonide on reduction gives aldehydes or ketones. 3 2 3 2 3 2 3 3 3 2 CH CH CH C (CH ) O CH CH CHO + CH COCH H O/Zn ->
