An alkene having molecular formula C7H14 was subjected to ozonolysis in the presence of zinc dust. An equimolar amount of the following two compounds was obtained
\(^{CH_3}_{CH_3}>C\) and \(^{CH_3}_{CH_3CH_2}>C\) = O
The IUPAC name of the alkene is
(a) 3, 4-dimethyl-3-pentene
(b) 3, 4-dimethyl-2-pentene
(c) 2, 3-dimethyl-3-pentene
(d) 2, 3-dimethyl-2-pentene

Correct answer: (d) 2, 3-dimethyl-2-pentene
Explanation:
\(^{CH_3}_{CH_3}>C\) = O + O = \(C<_{C_2H_5}^{CH_3} \longleftarrow\) \(^{CH_3}_{CH_3}>C = \) \(C <_{CH_2CH_3}^{CH_3}\)
2,3-Dimethyl-2-pentene
