Question
What type of compound is formed when an alkyne undergoes ozonolysis with reductive workup?
Correct Answer
Option A is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Ozonolysis of alkynes with reductive workup (e.g., Zn/H2O) gives aldehydes and/or ketones, not carboxylic acids. Oxidative workup gives acids.
Hint
Reductive workup stops at the carbonyl stage.
