Kolbe Electrolysis for Alkenes

A hydrocarbon...

Question

A hydrocarbon on ozonolysis gives one mole each of compounds $A$ and $B$ . Both $A$ and $B$ on reduction with sodium borohydride gives compounds $C$ and $D$ belonging to same homologous series. $C$ has no position isomer whereas $D$ has position isomer. $A$ and $B$ do not belong to the same homologous series. However, both $A$ and $B$ on oxidation with acidified $K M n O_{4}$ give same compound. Identify the hydrocarbon.

Solution

The correct option is C 2-Methyl-2-butene
Ozonolysis of alkenes form ketone or aldehydes. Their reduction with $N a B H_{4}$ gives alcohols. $C$ has no position isomer whereas $D$ has position isomer.Thus $C$ is a primary alcohol and $D$ is a secondary alcohol. $A$ is an aldehyde and $B$ is a ketone. And the compound is $2 - m e t h y l - 2 - b u t e n e$
$C H_{3} - (C H_{3}) C = C H - C H_{3} (O_{3}) \to C H_{3} - (C H_{3}) C = O [A] + O = C H - C H_{3} [B] N a B H_{4} \to C H_{3} - (C H_{3}) C H - O H [C] + H O - C H_{2} - C H_{3} [D] K M n O_{4} \to C H_{3} - (C H_{3}) C H - O H + H O O C - C H_{3}$
