Reductive ozonolysis (O3, then Zn/H2O) of 2-methylbut-2-ene, (CH3)2C=CHCH3, gives

NEET levelSingle correct optionDifficulty 1 of 3co042

Reductive ozonolysis ( $O X_{3}$ , then $Zn / H X_{2} O$ ) of 2-methylbut-2-ene, $(CH X_{3}) X_{2} C = CHCH X_{3}$ , gives

The

C = C

bond is cleaved and each carbon becomes a carbonyl carbon.

(CH X_{3}) X_{2} C

becomes

(CH X_{3}) X_{2} C = O

and

CHCH X_{3}

becomes

CH X_{3} CHO
