What is the major product in the following reaction?
`C_(6)H_(5)-CH=CH - CH_(3) underset(H_(2)O)overset((ii)(CH_(3)COO)_(2)Hg)rarrunderset(H_(3)O^(+))overset((ii)NaBH_(4))rarr`

A

`C_(6)H_(5)-underset(OH)underset(|)CH-CH_(2)CH_(3)`

B

`C_(6)H_(5)-CH_(2)-underset(OH)underset(|)CH-CH_(3)`

C

`C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)-CH=CH_(2)`

D

`C_(6)H_(5)-underset(OH)underset(|)overset(CH_(3))overset(|)C-CH_(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
In oxymercuration-demercuration reaction. Markownikoff's addition of `H_(2)O` takes place with `HO^(-)` added to carbon which can bear `+ve`charge of brige cation.
