Propane,

\mathrm{C}{\mathrm{H}_3}-\mathrm{CH} = \mathrm{C}{\mathrm{H}_2}

can be converted into 1-propanol by oxidation. Which set of reagents among the following is ideal to effect the conversion?

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

{\mathrm{B}_2}{\mathrm{H}_6},\mathrm{\;}{\mathrm{H}_2}{\mathrm{O}_2}

Option B (

{\mathrm{B}_2}{\mathrm{H}_6},\mathrm{\;}{\mathrm{H}_2}{\mathrm{O}_2}

) is correct because it represents hydroboration-oxidation, which converts alkenes to alcohols with anti-Markovnikov addition.
