3-Ethyl-2-Pentene on ozonolysis gives?

Explanation

Ozonolysis cleaves the double bond in 3-Ethyl-2-pentene, forming two carbonyl compounds.

The double bond is between C2 and C3:

CH3–CH=CH–CH(CH2CH3)–CH3

On ozonolysis, it breaks at the double bond, yielding:

- Ethanal (CH3CHO) from the CH= part

- 3-Pentanone (CH3COCH2CH2CH3) from the rest
