well this reaction its a test for distinction of unsaturated hydrocarbons from saturated ones.and when unsaturated hydrocarbons react with baeyer's reagent its pink colour disappears. What happens in this reaction is actually the KMnO4 reacts with alkali and releases K2MnO4+H2O+[O]

The nascent oxygen along with water reacts with alkene giving off alkanediol.

Does Bayer's Reagent gives glycol with 2-methyl-propene?

Yes Bayers reagent is Alkaline and it gives syn addition of two -OH groups across the double bond but if acidified KMnO4 is taken then that will cleave the double bond and give a mixture of acids


What is Bayer's reagent?

Baeyer's reagent, named after the German organic chemist Adolf von Baeyer, is used in organic chemistry as a qualitative test for the presence of unsaturation, such as double bonds. Baeyer's reagent is an alkaline solution of cold potassium permanganate, which is a powerful oxidant making this a redox reaction.


What is the equivalent weight of Bayer's reagent?

Alkaline soln.of KMnO4 functions as a Bayer reagent in which it turns into MnO4. Hence change in the oxidation state = 7-4=3.Sometimes equivalent weight = Original weight / Change in the oxidation state=158/3 = 52.6Hope it helps..

What are the reagents used distingush saturated and unsaturated organic compounds?

Basically there are many tests which is usually practiced to distinguish saturated Organic compounds from the unsaturated ones. But two of them are the most common: 1. Bromine water test. 2. Bayer's test. Basically Bromine water is red in color, so when an unsaturated compound (Alkene or Alkyne) is treated with it. The Bromine water get decolourized, on the other side the color is not changed when treated with saturated compound. In the Bayer's test KMnO4 solution is used, the unsaturated compound vanish its pink color while the saturated compounds do not.
