Problem 8-54 describes a new method to perform ozonolysis reactions that used pyridine (py) to generate the final
aldehydes and ketones in a non-aqueous reaction medium. In a subsequent publication (J. Org. Chem., 2013, 78, 42),
Professor Dussault (U. of Nebraska at Lincoln) described a “tandem” process in which two reactions are performed
sequentially without having to isolate the intermediate aldehyde or ketone. Show the final product from each sequence.
(Hint: The isolated products were from the larger part of the structure. Ignore stereochemistry.)
