Question

CH3CH2CH=CHCH3+O3 IN PRESENCE OF ZINC AND WATER

Answer 1

Answer:

Formaldehyde & Acetaldehyde

Reductive ozonolysis -

- When alkenes/alkynes react with ozone, C=C or C≡C are broken replaced by C=O.

- For example, when propene reacts with ozone followed by treatment with Zn/H2O, it will form formaldehyde and acetaldehyde.

CH3-CH=CH2 + O3 ---> CH3-CHO + HCHO
