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 CâHg bond to a CâH 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.
Thank you!
NaBH HO Draw 2 Neutral product(s) of oxymercuration. Clearly show stereochemistry Incorrect. Water adds anti to the Rd NCH l mercury group. H,O, THF Alcohol product(s) of demercuration. Include stereoisomers, if any Select all that apply: The alcohol product(s) of the reaction is characterized as being R, R R,S (and/or S,R). S,S achira racemic diastereomers
