Chapter 7, Problem 7.33P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Among the alkenes A, B, C and D, the alkene that gives a single compound if it undergoes Oxymercuration-reduction is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The chemical reaction in which the addition of water molecule into an alkene takes place to form an anti-addition product is known as Oxymercuration-reduction reaction. This reaction follows the Markonikov’s rule.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Among the alkenes A, B, C and D, the alkene that gives two diastereomers if it undergoes Oxymercuration-reduction is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The chemical reaction in which the addition of water molecule into an alkene takes place to form an anti-addition product is known as Oxymercuration-reduction reaction. This reaction follows the Markonikov’s rule.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

Among the alkenes A, B, C and D, the alkene that gives more than one constitutional isomer if it undergoes Oxymercuration-reduction is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The chemical reaction in which the addition of water molecule into an alkene takes place to form an anti-addition product is known as Oxymercuration-reduction reaction. This reaction follows the Markonikov’s rule.
