An inexperienced graduate student treated dec-5-ene with borane in THF, placed the flask in a refrigerator, and left for aparty. When he returned from the party, he discovered that the refrigerator was broken and that it had gotten quite warminside. Although all the THF had evaporated from the flask, he treated the residue with basic hydrogen peroxide. Tohis surprise, he recovered a fair yield of decan-1-ol. Use a mechanism to show how this reaction might have occurred.(Hint: The addition of BH3 is reversible.)

Compelling evidence for the existence of a tetrahedral intermediate innucleophilic acyl substitution was obtained in a series of elegantexperiments carried out by Myron Bender in 1951. The key experimentwas the reaction of aqueous −OH with ethyl benzoate (C6H5COOCH2CH3)labeled at the carbonyl oxygen with 18O. Bender did not allow thehydrolysis to go to completion, and then examined the presence of alabel in the recovered starting material. He found that some of therecovered ethyl benzoate no longer contained a label at the carbonyloxygen. With reference to the accepted mechanism of nucleophilic acyl substitution, explain how this provides evidence for a tetrahedralintermediate.
