How many moles of alkene are required with one mole of diboarane in the formation of alcohol from hydroboration-oxidation.

Answer»

Diborane (B2H6) react with an Alkene to give trialkyl borane as an addition product which further oxidized by H2O2 to alcohol.

As we know,

1 mole B2H6 (Diborane) → 2BH3 (2 mole)

∴ 1 mole diborane can oxidized 6 mole of alkene into alcohol.
