The compounds a, b, and c are 2-Methylpent-2-ene, Proapn-1-one, and Propan-2-one respectively.
- Ozonolysis is an organic reaction in which the unsaturated bonds of an alkene or alkyne are cleaved in the presence of ozone.
- The products are formed such that the multiple carbon-carbon bonds get replaced by a carbonyl group (C=O).
- Hence the product formed is either an aldehyde ( - CH = O) or a ketone.
- In the given question, the two compounds formed have the formula C₃H₆O. This means that the reactant (a) must have 6 carbons.
- The complete reaction is shown below.
