Incorrect method of preparation for alcohols from the following is:

Multiple Choice Options

  • A Hydroboration-oxidation of alkene.
  • B Reaction of Ketone with RMgBr\mathrm{RMgBr} followed by hydrolysis.
  • C Ozonolysis of alkene.
  • D Reaction of alkyl halide with aqueous NaOH\mathrm{NaOH} .

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Reductive ozonolysis of alkenes will lead to formation of aldehyde or ketones, oxidative ozonolysis of alkenes will lead to formation of carboxylic acids or ketones.

So, alcohol is not formed by ozonolysis of alkenes.
