@sigma - i think you forgot to take resonance into account while doing ozonolysis .
then you will get 3 products .

The reagents you mentioned is for reductive ozonolysis.. Isn't it?

Pardon for my mistake, H2O2 etc, are used for oxidative ozonolysis, while Zn/CH3Cl etc, are used for reductive ozonolysis.
