[2000]
(a) $H_2 O, H_2 SO_4$
(b) aqueous $KOH$
(c) $MgSO_4, NaBH_4 / H_2 O$
(d) $B_2 H_6, H_2 O_2, OH^{-}$
Show Answer
Solution:
- (d) We know that
$ \begin{aligned} & \underset{\text{ Propene }}{6 CH_3-CH}=CH_2 \underset{\text{ ether, } 0^{\circ} C}{B_2 H_6} \\ & 2(CH_3 CH_2 CH_2)_3 B \xrightarrow[\substack{OH^{-}}]{H_2 O_2} \\ & \quad 6 CH_3 CH_2 CH_2 OH+2 H_3 BO_3 \end{aligned} $
