Draw the starting structure that would lead to the following product under these conditions.

Transcribed Image Text:### Question 7 of 32
**Prompt:**
Draw the starting structure that would lead to the following product under these conditions.
**Reaction Conditions:**
1. \( \text{O}_3 \)
2. \( \text{Zn, HOAc} \)
**Diagram Explanation:**
- At the top, a dashed rectangle indicates an area labeled "Select to Draw," meant for drawing the starting structure.
- Below the rectangle, there is a vertical arrow pointing downwards, followed by reaction conditions:
- Step 1: Ozone (\( \text{O}_3 \))
- Step 2: Zinc and acetic acid (\( \text{Zn, HOAc} \))
**Product Structure:**
The product is a molecular structure featuring:
- An aldehyde group at one end (\( \text{O=CH} \)).
- A ketone group along the carbon chain.
This illustrates an ozonolysis reaction where the starting compound is typically an alkene, which breaks into these two carbonyl compounds.
