The alkene which on oxidation with acidified `KMnO_(4)` gives acetic acid is :

A

Ethylene

B

Propylene

C

1-Butene

D

2-Butene

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`underset("2-Butene")(CH_(3) - overset(H)overset(|)(C) = overset(H)overset(|)(C) - CH_(3)) overset(KMnO_(4))rarr underset("Acetic acid")(2CH_(3) overset(OH)overset(|)(C) = O)`
