AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to determine the products formed when the alkene that yields butan-2-one and 2-methylpropanal upon ozonolysis is treated with hot concentrated KMnO4. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Alkene**: The ozonolysis of the alkene produces butan-2-one (a ketone) and 2-methylpropanal (an aldehyde). The structure of the alkene can be deduced from the products. The alkene must have a structure that, when cleaved by ozonolysis, results in these two compounds. 2. **Write the Structure of the Alkene**: ...
