Task: Text Categorization
Input (English): This functional group can be oxidized by peroxycarboxylic acids to form oxiranes, or epoxides. The addition of cold, dilute, aqueous potassium permanganate also oxidizes them, to produce 1,2 diols, while hot, basic potassium permanganate causes cleavage to two molar equivalents of carboxylic acids. Under acidic conditions, adding water to them yields an alcohol, whereas alcohols or alkyl halides can undergo elimination reactions to form them. FTP, identify this hydrocarbon, also known as an olefin, which is characterized by a carbon-carbon double bond.
Output (English): Science
