Show the structures of the products you would obtain by hydroboration-oxidation of the following alkenes:
Aarti K.
The hydroboration-oxidation of internal alkynes produces ketones. (a) When hydroboration-oxidation is applied to 2 -butyne, a single pure product is obtained. Determine the structure of this product, and show the intermediates in its formation. (b) When hydroboration-oxidation is applied to 2 -pentyne, two products are obtained. Show why a mixture of products should be expected with any unsymmetrical internal alkyne.
