### α-Pinene Reaction and Isomer Formation

**α-Pinene**  
*(Structure Image)*

**When α-pinene reacts with:**

1. BH<sub>3</sub>;  
2. H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>, NaOH, H<sub>2</sub>O  

4 possible **cis, trans** isomers can be formed, but one of these is formed more readily than the others.

**Task:**  
Draw the structure of this preferred isomer.

**Instructions:**

- Use the wedge/hash bond tools to indicate stereochemistry where it exists.
- To aid you in your drawing, the structure of **α-pinene** is provided for you in the drawing palette.
