Summary The ozonolysis of mono-unsaturated compounds containing the structural element =CH-CH2-R [R=COOH, COOCH3, CH(OCH3)2] was investigated. Reductive ozonolysis of (E)-3-hexene-1,6-dioic acid gives methyl 3,3-dimethoxypropanoate (2), whereas ozonolysis of dimethyl (E)-3-hexene-1,6-dioate (1a) and (Z)-1,1,6,6-tetramethoxy-3-hexene (1b) in a methanolic solution of HCl leads to a mixture of2, dimethyl malonate (3 a) and 1,1,3,3-tetramethoxypropane (3 b). The homologuos derivatives, dimethyl glutaconate (4 a) and 1,1,5,5-tetramethoxy-2-pentene (4 b), were ozonized to give mixtures of2, 3, dimethyl oxalate (5), methyl 2,2-dimethoxyacetate (6 a), and 1,1,2,2-tetramethoxyethane (6 b). The ratios of the various reaction products were determined by gas chromatography. In each case the formation of the bifunctional derivatives2 and6 a was favoured.
