Oxidative Cleavage

An known alkene with formula C_(7)H_(12) on oxidation with hot alkaline KMnO_(4) yields only the following product CH_(3)-overset(O)overset(||)C-CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)-overset(O)overset(||)C-OH What is the structure of this alkene? Strategy: C_(7)H_(12)underset((2)H_(3)O^(+))overset((1)KMnO_(4),H_(2)O,Ooverset(-)H)rarrCH_(3)overset(O)overset(||)C CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)overset(O)overset(||)C-OH Since the oxidation cleavage leads to just one product which contains the same number of carbon atoms as the reactant, the unknown alkene must have a double bond contained in a ring. The oxidative cleavage of the double bond result in the opening of the ring. To create the ring, remove the - OH group and doubly bonded O's and finally join the carboxylic acid carbon with ketone carbon by a double bond.
