The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the given information about the compounds A, B, and C, and deduce the oxidative ozonolysis product of compound B. ### Step 1: Analyze Compound A - **Molecular Formula**: C₅H₉Cl - **Reactivity**: It does not react with bromine in CCl₄, indicating that it is not an alkene or alkyne. This suggests that compound A is likely a saturated compound, possibly a haloalkane. - **Degree of Unsaturation (DU)**: \[ \text{DU} = \frac{(C + 1) - H}{2} = \frac{(5 + 1) - 9}{2} = \frac{6 - 9}{2} = \frac{-3}{2} \text{ (not possible)} \] This calculation indicates that there is 1 degree of unsaturation, which suggests a ring structure (cyclopentane derivative). ### Step 2: Identify Compound B - **Reaction with Strong Base**: Compound A reacts with a strong base to produce compound B (C₅H₈). - **Molecular Formula of B**: C₅H₈ indicates that B has one less hydrogen than A, suggesting that a hydrogen was eliminated (dehydrohalogenation). - **Reactivity**: B reacts with Baeyer's reagent (KMnO₄), indicating that it is an alkene. ### Step 3: Reductive Ozonolysis of B - **Reductive Ozonolysis**: This reaction breaks double bonds and forms carbonyl compounds. - **Product C**: The molecular formula of C is C₅H₈O₂, which suggests that B is likely a compound with a double bond that, upon ozonolysis, produces two carbonyl groups (aldehydes or ketones). ### Step 4: Determine the Structure of B - Given that B is an alkene (C₅H₈) and has 1 degree of unsaturation, it could be cyclopentene or a linear alkene. - The structure of B could be 1-pentene or cyclopentene. ### Step 5: Perform Oxidative Ozonolysis of B - **Oxidative Ozonolysis**: This reaction converts carbonyl groups to carboxylic acids. - If B is cyclopentene, the oxidative ozonolysis will yield: - Two carboxylic acids from the cleavage of the double bond. ### Step 6: Final Product of Oxidative Ozonolysis - The oxidative ozonolysis of B (assuming it is cyclopentene) will yield: - A dicarboxylic acid with the formula C₅H₈O₄, specifically 3,4-pentanedicarboxylic acid (glutaric acid). ### Conclusion The oxidative ozonolysis product of compound B is a dicarboxylic acid. ### Final Answer The oxidative ozonolysis product of B is **3,4-pentanedicarboxylic acid**. ---
