Question: What will be the final product P of the following reaction?
Solution: To find out the final product let us
treat the given reactant with the reagent step by step:
First the
given reactant is treated with H3O+.
[H30]+ is a hydronium cation, also
known as hydroxonium. It's an acid according to Bronstend-Lowry theory,
about bases and acids, because it can give of a [H]+ :
[H30] <--> H2O + H+
[H30] <--> H2O + H+
So when given
reactant reacts with H3O+, it gives:
On heating
the obtained product losses CO2
Now the obtained alkene is react with O3 and
H2O2.
As a reagent, ozone is used to cleave alkenes. When
alkenes are treated with ozone and H2O2, they are
subjected to “Oxidative workup”, this
breaks the carbon-carbon double bond to form carboxylic acid.
Now this is final product P.
