What is the difference in the nature of alcohol when propene is subjected to acidic hydration or hydroboration oxidation ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Acidic hydration of propene will give propan-2-ol according to Markownikov's rule while hydroboration oxidation will yield propan-1-ol according to Anti Markownikov's rule. For details, consult section 6 (Industrial preparation of alkanols).
