Question

Hydroboration of isobutylene followed by oxidative alkaline hydrolysis gives

Answer 1

Hydroboration of isobutylene will gives four chemical substances

1)1-butanol

2)2-butanol

3)Isobutyl alcohol

4)$(CH_{3} )_{3}$C-OH

Formation:

   

Answer 2

Hydroboration of isobutylene followed by the oxidative alkaline hydrolysis gives Isobutyl alcohol.

• An alkene's hydroboration oxidation will give alcohol as the product where the OH group is attached to the less hindered carbon.
• Hence isobutylene will be isobutyl alcohol on the hydroboration oxidation process.
• Isobutanol is an alcohol of aliphatic nature and is used in industries as a solvent and also for organic synthesis.
