Concept explainers
Interpretation: The reason behind the consideration of hydroboration-oxidation an addition reaction should be determined and the small molecule that adds during hydroboration should be identified.
Concept introduction: Hydroboration-oxidation involves a sequence of two reactions. The hydroboration stage involves the treatment of alkene with diborane that generates alkyl borane. In second stage hydrogen peroxide in alkaline medium is used to oxidize the alkyl borane produced in step 1 that leads to the synthesis of alcohols from
Anti-Markovnikov’s Rule serves as the basis ofhydroboration. It states that the negative part of reagent must go to the carbon that has less alkyl substituents or more
