Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The compound in the preceding steps has to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Addition reaction:
Markovnikov’s rule:
In the overall reaction, the hydrogen atom (electrophile) is bonded to least substituted carbon and nucleophile is bonded to the most substituted carbon. This is known as Markovnikov’s rule.
Oxidation reaction:
Alcohol undergoes oxidation reaction using oxidizing agent like
