From among the following, identify the compound which forms two moles of a ketone on ozonolysis.
[A] 2,3-Dimethylbutane.
[B] 3-Methyl-1-pentene.
[C] 2,3-Dimethyl-2-butene.
[D] 2-Methyl-2-pentane.
- A [C]
- B [A]
- C [B]
- D [D]
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) [C]
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Ozonolysis of an alkene involves the cleavage of the carbon-carbon double bond to form carbonyl compounds. The general reaction is \(R_1R_2C=CR_3R_4 \xrightarrow{O_3, Zn/H_2O} R_1R_2C=O + R_3R_4C=O\). For the product to be two moles of a ketone, the alkene must be symmetric and…
