Hydroboration/Oxidation question
« on: September 29, 2021, 09:04:15 PM »


Can anyone help me with this question? I know hydroboration/oxidation adds the OH to the least substituted carbon of the double bond and it adds the OH and H in syn addition, so my first thought was that the answer was B because the hydrogens beside the alcohol weren't cis with it. Is that right?
