Alkenes undergo a variety of oxidation reactions. With cold and neutral or alkaline `KMnO_(4)`, alkenes are oxidised to give vicinal diols. Oxidation with hot `KMnO_(4)` undergoes cleavage of C=C bond leading to the formation of carboxylic acids, ketones and carbon dioxide depending on the nature ofalkene. Reductive ozonolysis of alkenes give aldehydes or ketones.
But-2-ene on treatment with cold alk. `KMnO_(4)` gives

A

Butane-1, 2-diol

B

Butane-2, 3-diol

C

Ethylene glycol

D

Glyoxal

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`CH_(3)- CH =CH- CH_(3) underset(KmnO_(4))overset("cold alk")to underset("Butane-2,3-diol")(CH_(3)- underset(OH) underset(|)CH- underset(OH) underset(|)CH- CH_(3))`
