Answer

The product of the reaction is:

Step by step solution

01

Regiochemistry and stereochemistry of Hydroboration- Oxidation

In this reaction, the hydrogen added o the double bond, will come from the Borane.

In hydroboration- oxidation reaction addition of hydroxide group is according to anti- Markovnikov’s rule i.e. OH group will be attached on the carbon atom having more number of hydrogens or we can say that it will be added on that carbon atom which is less substituted, D- and OH-are cis to one another.

02

Stereochemistry of the product

As we know that when we do hydroboration reaction borane group will add on the same side of the double bond of alkene i.e. cis product will form. Therefore, we can say that the stereochemistry of hydroboration- oxidation reaction is syn- addition (addition of deuterium and hydroxide on the same side of the double bond).

03

Product of the reaction

In this reaction, deuterated borane will form a complex with THF (tetrahydrofuran) because it is an explosive gas and will act as an electrophile, and a double bond of reactant 1- methylcyclopentene will act as a nucleophile and hydroboration reaction will take place i.e. deuterium ion will add on most substituted carbon. Then in the presence of a reagent oxidation reaction will take place. Hydroxide ion will add on less substituted carbon and with deuterium ion, it will form cis- product.

Hence, the product of the reaction is:

When a single alkene monomer, such as ethylene, is polymerized, the product is a homopolymer. If a mixture of two alkene monomers is polymerized, however, a copolymer often results. The following structure represents a segment of a copolymer called Saran. What two monomers were copolymerized to make Saran?

Compound A, C11H16O, was found to be an optically active alcohol. Despite its apparent unsaturation, no hydrogen was absorbed on catalytic reduction over a palladium catalyst. On treatment of A with dilute sulfuric acid, dehydration occurred and an optically inactive alkene B,C11H14, was the major product. Alkene B, on ozonolysis, gave two products. One product was identified as propanal,CH3CH2CHO. Compound C, the other product, was shown to be a ketone,C8H8O. How many degrees of unsaturation does A have? Write the reactions, and identify A, B, and C.

Simmons–Smith reaction of cyclohexene with diiodomethane gives asingle cyclopropane product, but the analogous reaction of cyclohexene with 1,1-diiodoethane gives (in low yield) a mixture of two isomeric methylcyclopropane products. What are the two products, and how do they differ?

An unknown hydrocarbon A with the formula C6H12 reacts with 1 molar equivalent ofH2 over a palladium catalyst. Hydrocarbon A also reacts withOsO4 to give diol B. When oxidized withKMnO4 in acidic solution, A gives two fragments. One fragment is propanoic acid, CH3CH2CO2H, and the other fragment is ketone C. What are the structures of A, B, and C? Write all reactions, and show your reasoning.
