The compound CH3- CH3 |C=CH-CH3 on reaction with NaIO4 in the presence of KMnO4 gives

  1. CH3COCH3
  2. CH3COCH3 + CH3COOH
  3. CH3COCH3 + CH3CHO
  4. CH3CHO + CO2

Answer

(2) CH3COCH3 + CH3COOH

Solution

NaIO4 in the presence of a little KMnO4 (Lemieux reagent) cleaves the C=C bond oxidatively, like hot alkaline KMnO4.

KMnO4 first forms the 1,2-diol, which NaIO4 cleaves into carbonyl compounds.

Disubstituted carbon (CH3)2C= ketone: CH3COCH3 (not oxidised further).

Monosubstituted carbon =CH-CH3 CH3CHO, which is oxidised further to CH3COOH.

Products: CH3COCH3 + CH3COOH
