Which alkene ozonolysis which forms a ketone and an aldehyde.And that alkene is obtained by dehydrating tertiary alcohol with molecular formula C5H12O...




Care este alchena care la ozonoliza formeaza o cetona si o aldehida si care se obtine prin deshidratarea alcoolului tertiar cu formula moleculara C5H12O?

Code: Select all

C5H12O
?
The only tertiary alcohol of that formula is 2-methyl-2-butanol.

Code: Select all

CH3CH2COH(CH3)2

This dehydrates to produce 2-methyl-2-butene or 2-methyl-1-butene.

Code: Select all

CH3CH2COH(CH3)2 --> CH3CH=C(CH3)2 , CH2=C(CH3)CH2CH3

The former ozonolysises into ethanal and propanone

Code: Select all

CH3CH=C(CH3)2 + O3 --> CH3CHO + CH3COCH3

The later ozonolysises into methanal and butanone.

Code: Select all

CH2=C(CH3)CH2CH3 + O3 --> CH2O + CH3CH2COCH3
