The correct Answer is:
To determine the structure of the hydrogen compound that, upon oxidative ozonolysis, yields oxalic acid and butanedioic acid, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Products The products of the oxidative ozonolysis are oxalic acid (C2H2O4) and butanedioic acid (C4H6O4). - Oxalic acid has the structure: HOOC-COOH - Butanedioic acid has the structure: HOOC-CH2-CH2-COOH ### Step 2: Analyze the Carbon Count - Oxalic acid has 2 carbon atoms. - Butanedioic acid has 4 carbon atoms. - Therefore, the starting compound must have a total of 6 carbon atoms (2 from oxalic acid + 4 from butanedioic acid). ### Step 3: Determine the Structure of the Starting Compound To produce these acids through ozonolysis, the starting compound must have a structure that allows for cleavage into these products. A likely candidate is a symmetrical compound with a double bond that can be cleaved. ### Step 4: Propose a Possible Structure A suitable structure for the starting compound could be 2,4-hexadiene (CH2=CH-CH=CH2). This compound has 6 carbon atoms and two double bonds. ### Step 5: Predict the Ozonolysis Reaction When 2,4-hexadiene undergoes oxidative ozonolysis: 1. The double bonds will break, leading to the formation of carbonyl groups (C=O). 2. Each carbon that was part of a double bond will be converted to a carbonyl (C=O) and will also have a hydroxyl (OH) group added. ### Step 6: Identify the Final Products The ozonolysis of 2,4-hexadiene would yield: - Two molecules of oxalic acid (from the cleavage of the double bonds at the ends). - One molecule of butanedioic acid (from the central part of the molecule). ### Conclusion Thus, the structure of the hydrogen compound that produces oxalic acid and butanedioic acid upon oxidative ozonolysis is 2,4-hexadiene.
