Question

Give the best description of the regioselectivity and stereospecificity in the oxymercuration of an alkene. anti-Markovnikov orientation with anti-addition Markovnikov orientation with anti-addition Markovnikov orientation with both syn- and anti-addition anti-Markovnikov orientation with syn-addition Markovnikov orientation with syn-addition

Answer 1

Answer:

The Markonikov's rule determines where to add a nucleotide in the reaction

Explanation:

In organic chemistry, the organic carbonyl reactions are governed by a set of rules. One of them is the Markovnikov's rule. Basically, the rule determines where the addition of the nucleophile and a hydrogen will take place in a chemical reaction involving alkene addition. In the reaction principles, there are rules to follow based on the syn and anti addition. This refers to which side the two groups will face. they add to the same side an called the syn. When its opposite side, then its anti.
