[[Ozonolysis]] is a type of [[cycloaddition]] which destroys bonds. It starts with a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition but eventually becomes a method of cleaving π bonds in an oxidative fashion, so that they end up as two carbonyl groups. The reagent for this reaction is ozone, O<sub>3</sub>. | [[Ozonolysis]] is a type of [[cycloaddition]] which destroys bonds.
