Chapter 6: Q61P (page 283)

What are the products of the following reactions? Indicate whether each reaction is an oxidation or a reduction.

Short Answer

Expert verified

a)

Here oxidation takes place

b)

Here reduction takes place.

c)

Here oxidation takes place.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1: How the reaction proceed

Ozonolysis= During ozonolysis the double bond will break and oxygen make a double bond with carbon and form two products.

Reduction= Addition of H2 on the both double bonded carbons to form a single bond.

02

Final answer

a) Here ozonolysis takes place. During ozonolysis the double bond will break and oxygen make a double bond with carbon and form two products. So here one ketone and one alcohol will form.

b) Here reduction takes place. Addition of H2 on the both double bonded carbons to form a single bond.

c) Here ozonolysis takes place. During ozonolysis the double bond will break and oxygen make a double bond with carbon.
