A hydrocarbon `C_6 H_12` decolourises bromine solution and yields `n-`hexane on hydrogenation. On oxidation with `KMnO_4` it affords two different monobasic acids of the type `R-COOH`. The compound is :

A

Cyclohexene

B

2-Hexene

C

1-Hexene

D

3-Hexene

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`1 D.U` suggests alkene (decolourises `Br_2` solution), gives `n-`hexane on hydrogenation. Two different acids on oxidation suggest that `(C=C)` bond is not symmetrical. So, the compound `(A)` is :
