Problem 8.6 using any alkyne needed , how would you prepare the following alkenes
8.6 Oxidative Cleavage of Alkynes
Alkynes , like alkenes , can be cleaved by reaction with powerful oxidizing agents such as ozone or KMnO, although the reaction is of little value and we mention it only for completeness. A triple bond is generally less reactive than a double bond and yield of cleavage products are sometimes low. The products obtained from cleavage of an internal alkyne are carboxylic acids from a terminal alkyne CO is formed as one product.
