8.3 Acid Catalyzed Hydration, Oxymercuration Demercuration, and Hydroboration Oxidation | OChemistry

Chad breaks down the three different was of hydrating an alkene: acid-catalyzed hydration, oxymercuration-demercuration, and hydroboration-reduction.
He starts with acid-catalyzed hydration of alkenes showing the reaction mechanism and explaining why it results in Markovnikov addition of H and OH, has no stereoselectivity, and is subject to carbocation rearrangements.
Chad then covers oxymercuration-demercuration of alkenes (aka oxymercuration-reduction) showing the reaction mechanism and explaining why it results in Markovnikov addition of H and OH, and how the halonium ion intermediate results in Anti addition for stereoselectivity and makes carbocation rearrangements not possible.
Third, Chad covers hydroboration-oxidation of alkenes showing the reaction mechanism and explaining why it results in anti-Markovnikov addition of H and OH and results in Syn addition for stereoselectivity.
Finally, Chad shows the product of each reaction on an alkene specially chosen as the difference between each of the three reactions is clear.

    Awesome Mohab! It is advantageous to post these right when they are likely to be watched so I'm trying! But obviously there is a little variation in timing from class to class and school to school and I've also heard that a number of colleges are ending the semester early due to the pandemic so my apologies to any for whom this is posted too late to be of help! Happy studying!🙃

    Hi Chad, My orgo professor says that a more substituted alkene would be less reactive towards acid catalyzed hydration than say something like ethene, since ethene is less stable, and thus more reactive. Yet, it forms the least stable carbocation, so wouldn't it be less reactive than something like 1-methylpropene? Thanks.

    23:30 you drew a racemic mixture but it's anti-addition? Shouldn't it just be the left enantiomer?

  • @ChadsPrep

    @ChadsPrep

    9 ай бұрын

    Hi Austin! Both enantiomers are the result of anti-addition. Keep in mind the anti addition refers to the relationship between the OH added and the H that is added on the terminal carbon. The enantiomer on the left has the OH on a wedged bond so the H would have been added with a dashed bond. The enantiomer on the right has the OH on a dashed bond so the H would have been added with a wedged bond. It is easy to miss on this one because we are not drawing in the H that was added and it is not on a chiral center anyways. But where the OH added is a chiral center in the product. And remember, when you form 1 chiral center in an alkene addition reaction will always form both R and S (and if it is the only chiral center in the entire molecule then it will be a racemic mixture). And it wouldn't matter if it was syn addition, anti addition, or didn't have any stereoselectivity at all. With only 1 chiral center forming, you get both R and S. Hope this helps!

    Hydroboration is anti markovnikov bc it doesn’t want to be borane 😂 like the other hydration mechanisms. 15:06
