Describe the ozonolysis of alkenes
one mole of a hydrocarbon(A) reacts with one mole of beomine giving a dibromo compound C5H10Br2.Substance A on treatment with cold dilute kMnO4 solution forms a compound C5C12O2(C5H12O2) on ozonolysis A,gives equimolar quantities of propanone and ethanol.Deduce the structure of substance A.
Hydrocarbon A has the formula C9H12 and absorbs 3 equivalents of H2 to yield B,
C9H18, when hydrogenated over a Pd/C catalyst. On treatment of A with aqueous
H2SO4 in the presence of mercury(II), two isomeric ketones, C and D, are produced .
Oxidation of A with KMnO4 gives a mixture of acetic acid (CH3COOH) and the
tricarboxylic acid E. Propose structures for compounds A-D, and write the reactions.
A hydrocarbon (X), with the molecular formula: C8H14 is reduced in presence of sodium and liquid ammonia to give the only product (Y) with the molecular formula: C8H16. Compounds X and Y both resulting 2,5-dimethylhexane when treated with hydrogen and platinum catalyst (H2/Pt). As a result of the oxidative cleavage of compound Y (by using KMnO4 / H2SO4), a single carboxylic acid derivative with C4H8O2 molecular formula is formed. Again, as a result of the reaction of Y with perbenzoic acid, the chiral compound C8H14O is observed, but the reaction of compound Y with bromine gives the achiral C8H14Br2 as the product.
