Question

An unsaturated hydrocarbon upon ozonolysis gives one mole each of formaldehyde, acetaldehyde and methyl glyoxal (CH3COCHO). The structure of the hydrocarbon is (A) CH2 = CH-CH2-CH = CH2 (B) CH2 = CH-C(CH3)=CH-CH3 (C) (CH3)2C = CH-CH3 (D) CH3-CH = C(CH3)-CH3

Q. An unsaturated hydrocarbon upon ozonolysis gives one mole each of formaldehyde, acetaldehyde and methyl glyoxal $(C H_{3} COC H O$ ). The structure of the hydrocarbon is

$C H_{2} = C H - C H_{2} - C H = C H_{2}$

$C H_{2} = C H - C (C H_{3}) = C H - C H_{3}$

$(C H_{3})_{2} C = C H - C H_{3}$

$C H_{3} - C H = C (C H_{3}) - C H_{3}$

Q. An unsaturated hydrocarbon upon ozonolysis gives one mole each of formaldehyde, acetaldehyde and methyl glyoxal (CH3​COCHO). The structure of the hydrocarbon is

CH2​=CH−CH2​−CH=CH2​

CH2​=CH−C(CH3​)=CH−CH3​

(CH3​)2​C=CH−CH3​

CH3​−CH=C(CH3​)−CH3​
