Alkenes can be converted to alcohols by reaction with mercuric acetate to form a B-hydroxyalkylmercury(II) acetate compound, a reaction called oxymercuration. Subsequent reduction with NaBH, reduces the C-Hg bond to a C-H bond, forming the alkyl alcohol, a reaction called demercuration. Draw the structures of the mercury-containing compound(s) and the alcohol product(s) formed in the reaction sequence, omitting byproducts. Clearly indicate stereochemistry by drawing a wedged bond, a dashed bond and two in-plane bonds per each chiral carbon. Draw hydrogen atoms that are connected to wedge-and-dash bonds. Hg(OOCCH₂)2 H₂O, THF Product(s) A NaBH. HO™ Product(s) B 1. Draw 2 neutral product(s) of oxymercuration (Product A). Draw hydrogens bonded to oxygen, where applicable. Clearly show stereochemistry. 2. Draw the alcohol product(s) of demercuration (Product B). Include stereoisomers, if any.
