Oxidation of alkenes by cleavage with ac...

Oxidation of alkenes by cleavage with acidic or alkaline `KMnO_4` or acidic `K_2Cr_2O_7` at higher temperature yields products depending upon the nature of alkene. A hot solution of is a strong oxidizing agent which gives only ketones and carboxylic acids and not aldehydes (as they cannot be isolated)
