Solution
The correct option is D Methanal and 3−methyl−2−butanone The major products obtained during ozonolysis of 2,3−dimethyl−1−butene and subsequent reductions with Zn and H2O are methanal and 3−methyl−2−butanone. This is an example of reductive ozonolysis. The C atoms attahed to double bond are oxidised to carbonyl groups.
