Concept Introduction:
In general, organic compounds that lack a plane of symmetry are optically active and are chiral.
Optically active compounds exist as enantiomers that are mirror images of each other. Enantiomers have same physical and chemical properties in similar achiral environment.

When cyclohexane is substituted by an ethynyl group, -C=CH, the energy difference
between axial and equatorial conformations is only 1.7 kJ (0.41 kcal)/mol. Compare the
conformational equilibrium for methylcyclohexane with that for ethynylcyclohexane and
account for the difference between the two.
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
. 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.
