Chapter 8, Problem 42PP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Major product should be drawn for the given reactions according the reagents mentioned.

Concept introduction:

• Hydro halogenation: addition of hydrogen and halogen molecules across the double bond of alkene is known as hydro halogenation reaction
• Syn-dihydroxylation: syn- dihydroxylation is a process of adding two –OH groups from the same plane to the alkene.
• Hydrogenation: addition of hydrogen molecule across the double bond in presence of transition metal catalyst is known as hydrogenation process.
• Bromination reaction: addition of bromine molecule across the double bond is known as bromination reaction.
• Hydration: addition of water molecule across the double bond is known as hydration reaction. In oxymercuration-demercuration hydration process,  -OH group is added at the most substituted carbon position of the alkene.
