Alkenes undergo electrophilic addition with many reagents like HX, H_2O, HOCI etc. Except in the case of addition of X_2^(-) in other additions carbocation is formed as intermediate. The rate of such reactions depends on the stability of carbocation. Rearrangements and ring expansion are also common in such reactions. 1-methylcyclohex-1-ene is subjected to hydro-boration oxidation. The product is
