Q4 / 160 · TS EAMCET 2009 · Chemistry
One mole of alkene $\underline{X}$ on ozonolysis gave one mole of acetaldehyde and one mole of acetone. The IUPAC name of $\underline{X}$ is
- Correct answerA2-methyl-2-butene
- B2-methyl-1-butene
- C2-butene
- D1-butene
Solution
To decide the structure of alkene that undergoes ozonolysis, bring the products together in such a way that $\mathrm{O}$ atoms are face to face, and replace $\mathrm{O}$ by double $(=)$ bond. Thus,


Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
