An unknown alkyl halide A reacts with alcoholic KOH to produce a hydrocarbon `(C_4H_8)`. Ozonolysis of the hydrocarbon affords one mole of propionaldehyde and one mole of formaldehyde. Suggest which organic structure among the following is the correct structure of the above alkyl halide A ?

A

`CH_3(CH_2)_3Br`

B

`CH_3CH(Br)CH(Br)CH_3`

C

`CH_3CH_2CH(Br)CH_3`

D

`Br(CH_2)_4Br`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Since ozonolysis products are `CH_3CH_2CHO` and HCHO, so the structure of alkene is `CH_3CH_2CH=CH_2`
