Ozonolysis of alkenes gives ozonide which gives aldehydes and/or ketones. When a stream of $O_{3}$ is passed through a solution of alkene in an inert solvent at low temperature the molecule adds up to form ozonide. This ozonide is unstable and easily decompose either by reduction or hydrolysis and forms compound having. This $> C = O$ is known as ozonolysis.

Ozonolysis of alkenes gives ozonide which gives aldehydes and/or ketones. When a stream of $O_{3}$ is passed through a solution of alkene in an inert solvent at low temperature, the molecule adds up to form ozonide. This ozonide is unstable and easily decomposes either by reduction or hydrolysis and forms compound having the carbonyl group $> C = O$ . This is known as ozonolysis. 2-Methyl-but-2-ene on ozonolysis followed by reductive hydrolysis gives:

Addition of ozone molecule to alkene to form ozonide is known as:

Q. A ketone A

(C_{4} H_{8} O)

, which undergoes haloform reaction gives compound B on reduction. B on heating with sulphuric acid gives a compound C which forms mono-ozonide D. D on hydrolysis in presence of zinc dust gives only acetaldehyde E. Identify A, B, C, D and E. Write the reactions involved.

Q. Assertion :Ozonolysis of 3-hexyne followed by hydrolysis gives propanoic acid. Reason: The byproduct

H_{2} O_{2}

oxidizes ozonide to acid.

Q. Hydrolysis of ozonide of 1-butene gives:
