Let's solve the problem step-by-step: --- ## Step 1: **Draw the Structure of Compound B** Compound **B** is shown as: ``` CH3 | CH3-C-CH2-CH2-CH=CH2 | CH3 ``` This is **2,3,3-trimethyl-1-hexene**. --- ## Step 2: **Ozonolysis Reaction** Ozonolysis of an alkene cleaves the double bond, forming two carbonyl compounds (aldehydes or ketones). The double bond in B is between carbons 5 and 6. Let’s number the carbons for clarity: ``` 1 2 3 4 5 6 CH3-C(CH3)2-CH2-CH2-CH=CH2 ``` So, the C=C is between **C5 and C6**. --- ### **Cleavage Products** - The double bond breaks, each carbon gets an oxygen. - At C5, the fragment is: **C5**: -CH2-CH= - At C6, the fragment is: **C6**: =CH2 #### After cleavage: - C5 side becomes: \[ ...-CH2-CH(=O) \] (aldehyde) - C6 side becomes: \[ O=CH2 \] (formaldehyde) Now, let's look at the full fragments: #### **Left side** (from C1 to C5): - C1: CH3 - C2: C(CH3)2 (2,3,3-trimethyl) - C3: CH2 - C4: CH2 - C5: CH (was double bonded, becomes CH=O) So, this is: ``` CH3-C(CH3)2-CH2-CH2-CH=O ``` This is **4,4,5-trimethylpentanal**. #### **Right side** (C6): - O=CH2 (**formaldehyde**) --- ## Step 3: **Identify the Given Options** Let's match the options to possible products: a. ![Acetaldehyde](https://i.imgur.com/G4P7v1B.png) = **Acetaldehyde (CH3CHO)** b. ![Formaldehyde](https://i.imgur.com/uQb6wK.png) = **Formaldehyde (HCHO)** c. ![Propanal](https://i.imgur.com/9V7KsqI.png) = **Propanal (CH3CH2CHO)** d. ![4,4-dimethylpentanal](https://i.imgur.com/sf9PtD.png) = **4,4-Dimethylpentanal (not matching our product, our product has 3 methyls)** --- ## Step 4: **Which is NOT Formed?** - **a. Acetaldehyde:** Not possible, since there's no CH3-CH= in the molecule. - **b. Formaldehyde:** YES, it is formed from the terminal =CH2. - **c. Propanal:** Not possible, since there is no CH2-CH2-CH= in the molecule. - **d. 4,4-Dimethylpentanal:** Looks similar to our main product, but our actual product is **4,4,5-trimethylpentanal** (has 3 methyls, not 2). --- ## Step 5: **Final Answer** ### **Products actually formed:** - Formaldehyde (**b**) - 4,4,5-Trimethylpentanal (not exactly **d**) - Not acetaldehyde (**a**) - Not propanal (**c**) ### **Final Answer:** **The product that is NOT formed is:** **a.** (Acetaldehyde, CH₃CHO) --- ## **Summary Table** | Option | Product Name | Formed? | |--------|--------------------|---------| | a | Acetaldehyde | NO | | b | Formaldehyde | YES | | c | Propanal | NO | | d | Aldehyde (similar) | YES | --- ### **Final Answer:** \[ \boxed{a} \] **Acetaldehyde is NOT formed upon ozonolysis of compound B.**
