Hydrocarbons

An alkene A, on ozonolysis (reaction with followed by Zn/), gives propanone and ethanal in equimolar amounts (A is 2-methylbut-2-ene). Addition of HCl to A gives B as the major product (Markovnikov addition). The structure of B is:

  1. A.
  2. B.
  3. C.
  4. D.

You have the answer. The worked solution — and why the other three were written — is part of a paid pack.
