The mechanism of ozonolysis was revisited with the use of 17O-NMR spectroscopy. In a crossover experiment with 17O-labelled benzaldehyde and the ozonides of styrene and ethylidenecyclohexane it was shown that only the ether bridge of the secondary ozonides is carrying the 17O label. This is contrary to results reported earlier and confirms the Criegee mechanism.
