O-xylene, when subjected to ozonolysis, undergoes cleavage of its double bonds, resulting in the formation of smaller molecules. Ozonolysis is a reaction where ozone (O\u2083) reacts with alkenes or alkynes to break them down into carbonyl compounds.<\/p>\r\n

Ozonolysis of O-xylene:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

- O-xylene has two methyl groups attached to a benzene ring at the ortho positions (1,2 positions).<\/p>\r\n

- When o-xylene undergoes ozonolysis, the double bonds in the aromatic ring are cleaved.<\/p>\r\n

- This reaction results in the formation of two molecules of glyoxal (CHO-CHO), a simple dialdehyde.<\/p>\r\n

Reaction:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

C6H4(CH3)2 + 3O_3 - 2(CH_2O_2) + 2CO_2<\/p>\r\n

Products:<\/p>\r\n

- Glyoxal (CHO-CHO)<\/p>\r\n

- Carbon dioxide (CO\u2082)<\/p>\r\n

In summary, o-xylene on ozonolysis gives glyoxal and carbon dioxide as the main products.<\/p>","subject":"Chemistry"},"yoast_head":"\nO-xylene on ozonolysis will give - Infinity Learn by Sri Chaitanya<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"O-xylene on ozonolysis will give\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/infinitylearn.com\/surge\/question\/chemistry\/o-xylene-on-ozonolysis-will-give\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"O-xylene on ozonolysis will give -
