Question

Propene, CH3 - CH = CH2 can be converted into 1-propanol by oxidation. Indicate which set of reagents amongst the following is ideal to affect the above conversion? (A) KMnO4 (alkaline) (B) Osmium tetroxide (Os O4 /CH2 Cl2) (C) B2 H6 and H2 O2 (D) O3/Zn

CH 3- CH = CH 2 xrightarrow B 2 H 6 CH 3- underset overset|HCH - underset overset|BH2CH 2 xrightarrow H 2 O 2 CH 3- CH 2- CH 2 OH This reaction is called as hydroboration-oxidation.

Q. Propene, $C H_{3} - C H = C H_{2}$ can be converted into $1$ -propanol by oxidation. Indicate which set of reagents amongst the following is ideal to affect the above conversion?

$K M n O_{4}$ (alkaline)

Osmium tetroxide $(O s O_{4} / C H_{2} C l_{2})$

$B_{2} H_{6}$ and $H_{2} O_{2}$

$O_{3} / Z n$

$C H_{3} - C H = C H_{2} B_{2} H_{6} C H_{3} - H ∣ C H - B ∣ H_{2} C H_{2} H_{2} O_{2} C H_{3} - C H_{2} - C H_{2} O H$
