2-Methylbut-2-ene is treated with $O X_{3}$ and the ozonide is then worked up with $Zn / H X_{2} O$ . The organic products are

Ozonolysis cleaves

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

at the double bond, and each carbon becomes C=O. The

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

end gives propanone and the

CH - CH X_{3}

end gives ethanal.
