(a)
Interpretation: Whether the given alcohol can be prepared as a single product by hydroboration-oxidation of an
Concept introduction: Hydroboration reaction is a two-step reaction, which involves conversion of alkene into alcohol. This type of reaction follows anti-Markovnikov’s rule.
The basic difference between hydroboration-oxidation and acid catalyzed reaction is that in hydroboration-oxidation reactions, the attack of hydroxyl group is on the less substituted carbon, whereas in acid catalyzed reaction, the attack of hydroxyl group is on the more substituted carbon.

- #20 B Draw structural formulas for all possible carbocations formed by the reaction of each alkene with HCl.arrow_forwardWhat alkylborane is formed from hydroboration of each alkene?arrow_forward1. Ethylene glycol, a major component of antifreeze, becomes especially poisonous when it is oxidized by the liver. Draw two oxidation products that could be derived from ethylene glycol. 2.When 2-methyl-1-butanol is dehydrated in an acid medi- um to an alkene, it yelds mainly 2-methyl-2-butene rather than 2-methyl-1-butene. This indicates that the dehydra- tion to an alkene is at least a two-step reaction. Suggest a mechanism to explain the reaction.arrow_forward
