An unsaturated hydrocarbon ‘A’ adds two molecules of Hand on reductive ozonolysis gives butane-1,4-dial, ethanal and propanone. Give the structure of ‘A’, write its IUPAC name and explain the reactions involved.

Two molecules of hydrogen add on ‘A’ this shows that ‘A’ is either an alkadiene or an alkyne.

On ozonolysis compound A gives

CH_{3}CHO + O = CH - CH_{2}- CH_{2}- CHO + O = C(CH_{3})_{2}

Hence, the structure of A(Its IUPAC name will be 2-methyl octa 2,6 diene) is,
