Chapter 11, Problem 30ASP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: To determine the appropriate reaction to shorten the length of a carbon chain.

Concept introduction:

Any process that involves adding hydrogen or another electropositive radical or removing oxygen or another electronegative radical is referred to as a reduction.

In either a one-step or two-step method, a pair of substituents or a group of atoms are eliminated from a molecule in an elimination reaction.

Epoxidation is the reaction that converts the carbon-carbon double bond into oxiranes (epoxides).

When the double or triple bonds are broken with the help of ozone, they get converted into their respective aldehydes and ketones. This is known as ozonolysis.
