Question

catalytic hydroxylation of alkane is---– addition
a) cis
b) anti
c)syn and anti
D) none of these​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Upon formation of the two new carbon‐hydrogen bonds, the alkane molecule can move away from the catalyst. ... This approach of hydrogen atoms to the same face of an alkene molecule is called a syn addition. When hydrogen atoms approach alkene molecules from opposite sides, the reaction is called an anti addition.
