[References 4-methyl-3-hexanol was prepared by reacting an alkene with either hydroboration-oxidation or oxymercuration-reduction. Draw the structure of the alkene that was used to prepare the alcohol in highest yield. • You do not have to consider stereochemistry. • Indicate the method of preparation by drawing either BH3 (for hydroboration-oxidation), or Hg (for oxymercuration-reduction), in a separate sketcher. . If there is more than one alkene that can be used for a given method, draw all of them. • If either hydroboration-oxidation or oxymercuration-reduction can be used, just give the structures for one method. • Separate structures with + signs from the drop-down menu.

Alkenes can be converted to alcohols by reaction with mercuric acetate to form a β-hydroxyalkylmercury(II) acetate compound, a reaction called oxymercuration. Subsequent reduction with NaBH4 reduces the C–Hg bond to a C–H bond, forming the alkyl alcohol, a reaction called demercuration. Draw the structures of the Hg-containing compound(s) and the final alcohol product(s) formed in the following reaction sequence, omitting byproducts. If applicable, draw hydrogen at a chirality center and indicate stereochemistry via wedge-and-dash bonds.
