What is the major product (s) when 2 methyl-2-butene reacts with (i) (ii) \[ Z n
What is the major product (s) when 2 methyl-2-butene reacts with (i) \( O_{3} \) (ii) \[ Z n / C H_{3} C O O H(a q) ? \]
- A. \( I+I I \)
- B. \( I I+I I I \)
- C. \( I I I+I V \)
- D. II
Step-by-step solution
Ozonolysis of 2-methyl-2-butene with reductive workup (Zn/CH3COOH) cleaves the double bond, yielding acetone (I) and acetaldehyde (II) as the major products. No other significant products are formed.
