Ozonolysis of an alkene [A] followed by decomposition with water and a reducing agent gave a mixture of two isomers of the formula `C_(3)H_(6)O`. The structure of alkene is :

Options

A. `CH_(2) = CH CH_(2)CH (CH_(3))_(2)`
B. `(CH_(3))_(2) C = CH CH_(2)CH_(3)`
C. `(CH_(3))_(2) CH CH = CH CH_(3)`
D. `CH_(3) underset(CH_(2))underset(||)(C C)H_(2)CH_(2)CH_(3)`

Answer

B

Explanation

`CH_(3) - overset(CH_(3))overset(|)(C) = O + O = overset(H)overset(|)(C) - CH_(2) - CH_(3) rarr CH_(3) - overset(CH_(3))overset(|)(C) = overset(H)overset(|)(C) - CH_(2)CH_(3)`
