Part 5 out of 8 Choose the most appropriate reagent(s) for the conversion of the 1-decene to 1-decanol. 1. HgSO4, H2SO4, H2O 2. NaBH4 H2SO4, H2O 1. LiAlH4 2. H2O 1. BH3 2. H2O2, NaOH Br2, H2O

Answer:

[tex]BH_{3}[/tex] followed by  [tex]NaOH/H_{2}O_{2}[/tex] is used for the given conversion.

Explanation:

Hydroboration of 1-decene is done first. Here [tex]BH_{2}[/tex] group adds onto less hindered side due to steric reason.

Then hydrolysis is done to replace [tex]BH_{3}[/tex] by OH group. This hydrolysis process is usually done by using [tex]NaOH/H_{2}O_{2}[/tex].

[tex]LiAlH_{4}[/tex] or [tex]NaBH_{4}[/tex] does not reduce double bonds.

Also hydrolysis of alkyne bond is generally done by using [tex]HgSO_{4}/H_{2}SO_{4}[/tex].

[tex]Br_{2}/H_{2}O[/tex] reacts with double bond to produce bromo susbstituted alcohol.
