It has the molecular formula C10H16 and a UV absorption maximum at 232 nm. On hydrogenation with a palladium catalyst, 2,6-dimethyloctane is obtained. Ozonolysis of -ocimene, followed by treatment with zinc and acetic acid, produces the following four fragments: (a) How many double bonds does -ocimene have?
