The product of the following reaction: CH_(3)- underset(CH_(3))underset(|)overset(CH_(3))overset(|)C-CH=CH_(2) underset((ii)NaBH_(4))overset(((i)Hg(OAc)_(2),H_(2)O))to

Answer»

`CH_(3)-underset(CH_(3))underset(|)overset(CH_(3))overset(|)C-underset(OH)underset(|)CH-CH_(3)`
`CH_(3)-underset(CH_(3))underset(|)overset(CH_(3))overset(|)C-CH_(2)-CH_(2)OH`
`CH_(3)-underset(CH_(3))underset(|)overset(OH)overset(|)C-underset(CH_(3))underset(|)CH-CH_(2)OH`
`HOCH_(2)-underset(CH_(3))underset(|)overset(CH_(3))overset(|)C-CH_(2)CH_(3)`

Solution :Oxymercuration-reduction follows Markovnikov.s rule. Thus
`CH_(3)-underset(CH_(3))underset(|)overset(CH_(3))overset(|)C-CH=CH_(2) underset("(Murkovnico.s ADDITION)")overset(Hg(OAC)_(2),H_(2)O)to CH_(3)-underset(CH_(3))underset(|)overset(CH_(3))overset(|)C-underset(OH)underset(|)CH-underset(HgOAc)underset(|)CH_(2) overset(NaBH_(4))to CH_(3)-underset(CH_(3))underset(|)overset(CH_(3))overset(|)C-underset(OH)underset(|)CH-CH_(3)`
