The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the reaction of propyne with ozone (O3) followed by a reductive workup with zinc and water (Zn/H2O). The goal is to determine the number of carbonyl carbons in the product X. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Structure of Propyne**: Propyne has the molecular formula C3H4 and its structure can be represented as: \[ \text{CH}_3-\text{C} \equiv \text{C} \] 2. **Ozonolysis Reaction**: When propyne undergoes ozonolysis, the triple bond reacts with ozone (O3). The reaction involves the formation of an ozonide intermediate. The triple bond breaks and forms a double bond with oxygen. The ozonolysis of propyne can be represented as: \[ \text{CH}_3-\text{C} \equiv \text{C} + O_3 \rightarrow \text{Ozonide} \] 3. **Formation of Ozonide**: The ozonide is formed when the ozone reacts with the propyne. The structure of the ozonide can be complex, but it generally contains a cyclic structure with oxygen atoms. 4. **Reductive Workup**: The ozonide is then treated with zinc and water (Zn/H2O), which reduces the ozonide to carbonyl compounds. In this case, we will get one ketone and one aldehyde from the ozonide: \[ \text{Ozonide} \xrightarrow{\text{Zn/H}_2\text{O}} \text{Products} \] 5. **Identify the Products**: The products of this reaction are: - A ketone (2-oxopropanal) - An aldehyde (acetaldehyde) 6. **Count the Carbonyl Carbons**: The carbonyl group (C=O) is present in both the ketone and the aldehyde. Therefore, we can count the carbonyl carbons: - The ketone contributes 1 carbonyl carbon. - The aldehyde contributes 1 carbonyl carbon. 7. **Total Number of Carbonyl Carbons**: Adding these together, we find: \[ \text{Total Carbonyl Carbons} = 1 (\text{from ketone}) + 1 (\text{from aldehyde}) = 2 \] Thus, the number of carbonyl carbons in the product X is **2**.
