### Question:

**Treatment of 1,2-dimethylcyclopentene with OsO4, followed by aqueous NaHSO3, produces which of the following:**

The structures of the compounds labeled I to V are as follows:

- **I**
  - Two hydroxyl (OH) groups are attached to the carbon atoms at the 1 and 2 positions of a cyclopentene ring.
  - Each hydroxyl-bearing carbon also has a methyl group (CH3) attached, resulting in two CH3 groups opposite each other on the ring.

- **II**
  - Two hydroxyl (OH) groups are attached on the 1 and 2 positions of a cyclopentene ring, similar to I.
  - The arrangement of the hydroxyl groups differs from structure I.

- **III**
  - Two hydroxyl (OH) groups are attached on the 1 and 2 positions of a cyclopentane ring.
  - The relative positions of the hydroxyl groups differ from structures I and II.

- **IV**
  - Two hydroxyl (OH) groups are attached on the 1 and 2 positions of a cyclopentane ring.
  - The arrangement of these is staggered differently from structures I, II, and III.

- **V**
  - A compound with no hydroxyl groups. 

### Options:

- **II**
- **III**
- **IV**
- **V**
- **I**

**Graphs/Diagrams Explanation:**

There are five molecular structures shown as options I to V.

- **I, II, III & IV**: Each of these contains a cyclopentane ring with varying positions and arrangements of hydroxyl (OH) and methyl (CH3) groups.
- **V**: This structure, differs from others as it lacks any hydroxyl groups and includes two oppositely positioned methyl groups on the ring structure.
