Aman has been asked to synthesise the molecule , 1-(cyclopent-1-en-1-yl)ethan-1-one, in which an acetyl group is attached to C-1 of cyclopentene. He thought of preparing the molecule using an aldol condensation reaction. He found a few cyclic alkenes in his laboratory. He thought of performing an ozonolysis reaction on an alkene to produce a dicarbonyl compound, followed by an aldol reaction to prepare . Predict the suitable alkene that can lead to the formation of .
- A
1-Methylcyclohex-1-ene
- B
4-Methylcyclohex-1-ene
- C
Methylenecyclohexane
- D
3-Methylcyclohex-1-ene
