Interpretation:
Concept introduction:
Alkenes are converted to alcohols by methods, such as acid-catalyzed hydration of alkenes, oxymercuration–demercuration reactions, and hydroboration–oxidation reactions.
Hydroboration–oxidation reaction proceeds by anti-Markovnikov’s regioselectivity.
Anti-Markovnikov addition is an addition reaction between an electrophile compound HX and either an alkene or
