Consider the hydration reaction of alkyes with and hydroboration oxidation. The following substrate was allowed to undergo the given reactions:
Select the correct Statement
(P) is an aldehyde while (Q) is a ketone.
(P) is a ketone while (Q) is an aldehyde
(P) and (Q) are both aldehydes.
(P) and (Q) are both ketones.
Mercury catalysed hydration follows Markovikov type of addition while Hydroboration oxidation follows anti - Markovikov addition. The reactions are given as
Hence, the correct answer is (2).
