For above chemical reactions, identify the correct statement from the following:

Options

ABoth compound $' A '$ and compound $' B '$ are dicarboxylic acids
BBoth compound $' A '$ and compound $' B '$ are diols
CCompound $' A '$ is diol and compound $' B '$ is dicarboxylic acid
DCompound $' A '$ is dicarboxylic acid and compound $' B '$ is diol

Correct answer

D. Compound $' A '$ is dicarboxylic acid and compound $' B '$ is diol

Step-by-step solution

For above chemical reactions, identify the correct statement from the following:

${KMnO}_{4}$ in acidic medium is very strong oxidising agent due to which carboxylic acid is produced from alkene. ${KMnO}_{4}$ in neutral medium is not very strong oxidising agent therefore, syn hydroxylation occurs and diol is produced from alkene.
