(b)
Interpretation: The hydroboration-oxidation reaction product of alkene is to be interpreted.
Concept introduction:
Addition reactions are the chemical reactions that show the addition of a certain group or molecule to the unsaturated carbon atoms. Alkenes are the unsaturated hydrocarbon that contains at least one double bond between the carbon atoms. Therefore, they tend to give addition reactions. Some examples of addition reactions are acid-catalyzed hydration, hydroboration-oxidation, oxymercuration-demercuration, etc.
