Interpretation:
The molecular formula of compound A is C6H12. It reacts with one molar equivalent of H2/Pd. It reacts with OsO4 to give the
Concept introduction:
From the molecular formula the degree of unsaturation can be calculated. The reaction with H2/Pd and that with OsO4 shows the presence of double bonds. When oxidized with KMnO4 a disubstituted carbon in a double bond is converted in to a ketone and a monosubstituted carbon in double bond gives a carboxylic acid.
