To carry out the anti-Markovnikov's addition of water indirectly to propylene (propene), we can use the hydroboration-oxidation method. Here’s a step-by-step explanation of the process: ### Step 1: Hydroboration - **React Propylene with Borane (BH3)**: The first step involves the addition of borane (BH3) to propylene. This reaction occurs via a concerted mechanism where boron adds to the less substituted carbon of the double bond (the terminal carbon), leading to the formation of an organoborane intermediate. ### Step 2: Oxidation - **Oxidize the Organoborane**: The organoborane intermediate is then treated with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the presence of a base (like NaOH). This oxidation step replaces the boron atom with a hydroxyl group (-OH), resulting in the formation of an alcohol. ...
