A hydrocarbon containing two double bond...

A hydrocarbon containing two double bonds gave on reductive ozonolysis ethanol, glyoxal and propanone. Predict the structure of the hydrocarbon and give its IUPAC name.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to deduce the structure of the hydrocarbon based on the products formed during reductive ozonolysis. The products given are ethanol, glyoxal, and propanone. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of how to arrive at the structure and its IUPAC name: ### Step 1: Understand the Products of Reductive Ozonolysis Reductive ozonolysis of alkenes typically breaks the double bonds and forms carbonyl compounds. In this case, we have: - Ethanol (C2H5OH) - Glyoxal (C2H2O2) - Propanone (C3H6O) ...
