Why is it that ozonolysis cleaves and oxidizes alkenes to aldehydes, but it cleaves and oxidizes alkynes to carboxylic acids? This is according to KBB.
For alkenes it uses O3/CH2Cl2 then Zn/H2O, and for alkynes it uses O3/CCl4 then H2O.
For alkenes it uses O3/CH2Cl2 then Zn/H2O, and for alkynes it uses O3/CCl4 then H2O.
