An alkene 'A' (molecular formula `C_(5)H_(10)`) on ozonolysis gives a mixture of two compounds 'B' and 'C'. Compound 'B' gives positive Fehling's test and also forms iodoform on treatement with `I_(2)" and "NaOH`. Compound 'C' does not give Fehling's test but forms iodoform. Identify the compounds A, B and C. Write the reaction for ozonolysis and formation of iodoform from B and C.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The available data suggests that the compound 'B' is a methylketone (propanone) while the compound 'C' is an aldehyde (ethanal). The structure of alkene 'A' can be established by joining together 'B' and 'C' which are the products of ozonolysis.
