The reduction of ozonides produces

Correct answer: A. Carbonyl compounds

  • A. Carbonyl compounds
  • B. Alkynes
  • C. Alkanes
  • D. Alkyl compound

Explanation

The reduction of ozonides, which are formed from the ozonolysis of alkenes, produces carbonyl compounds. During ozonolysis, the alkene double bond is cleaved to form ozonides, which can then be reduced to produce carbonyl compounds. Alkynes, alkanes, and alkyl compounds are not the primary products of this reaction and are incorrect choices.
