An alkene (A) C_(10)H_(10) on ozonolysis gives only one product (B) C_(8)H_(8)O. Compound (B) reduction with NaOH//I_(2) yields sodium benzoate. Compound (B) reacts with KOH//NH_(2)NH_(2) yielding a hydrocarbon (C) C_(8)H_(10). Write the structures of compound (B) & (C). Based on this information two isomeric structures can be proposed for alkene (A). Write their structure and identify the isomer which on catalytic hydrogenation (H_(2)//Pd-C) gives a racemic mixture. |
