Question

The correct sequence of reagents required for the following conversion is:

• A. $\underset{ii)Zn,H_{2}O}{\overset{i)O_3}{\to }}\stackrel{dil.O{H}^{-}}{\to }\stackrel{\Delta }{\to }$
  
• B. $\stackrel{i)Cr{O}_3}{\to }\stackrel{H^{+}}{\to }$
• C. $\stackrel{N_2{H}_4}{\to }\stackrel{O{H}^{-}}{\to }\stackrel{\Delta }{\to }$
  
• D. $\stackrel{KMn{O}_4/H^{+}}{\to }\stackrel{O{H}^{-}}{\to }$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $\underset{ii)Zn,H_{2}O}{\overset{i)O_3}{\to }}\stackrel{dil.O{H}^{-}}{\to }\stackrel{\Delta }{\to }$


The reaction goes through redcutive ozonolysis follwed by aldol condensation reaction.
