Question

Convert Cyclohexene to hexane-1,6-dioic acid

Answer 1

First of all cyclohexene is treated with ozone to get corresponding ozonide,which on reduction by zinc dust and water gives hexane-1,6-dial

The dialdehyde so obtained is oxidised by suitable oxidising agents to obtain hexane-1,6-dioic acid.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Definition of Cyclohexane:

A strong saturated cyclic hydrocarbon, C6H12, that is primarily utilized as a solvent and in the synthesis of organic compounds. By assuming non-planar conformations, the carbocyclic system cyclohexane effectively avoids eclipsing and angle strain.

Function of Cyclohexane:

The chemical industry uses cyclohexane as a nonpolar solvent, as well as a starting point for the manufacturing of adipic acid and caprolactam.

Structure of hexane-1,6-dioic acid:

                  HOOC _ CH2 _ CH2 _CH2 _ CH2 _ COOH

Conversion of Cyclohexene to hexane-1,6-dioic acid:

First, ozone is used to treat cyclohexene to create the appropriate ozonide, which is then reduced with zinc dust and water to produce hexane-1,6-dial.

      Hexane-1,6-dioic acid is produced by oxidizing the dialdehyde that was thus produced with the proper oxidizing agents.
