From what alkenes might the following alcohols have been prepared?

b)

Short Answer

Expert verified

b) The alkene needed to produce given alcohol is,


Step by step solution

01

Conversion of alkene to alcohol

When alkenes undergo oxymercuration-demercuration, it results in the formation of alcohol products.It occurs in two steps, the first step is the treatment of alkene with Hg(AOc)2, and the second step is the reduction with NaBH4.

02

Preparation of alcohol from alkene

b) The given alcohol is prepared by using oxymercuration-demercuration reaction. When vinylcyclohexane is treated with Hg(AOc)2and in the second step, the product is treated with NaBH4. The OH is added to that carbon which is highly substituted.
