But-1-yne and dicyclohexylborane
« on: July 01, 2005, 02:01:43 AM »
Hi

I'm having problems figuring out the product of But-1-yne and dicyclohexylborane.

I think its

1-Butene, with the attachment of dicycohexylborane at the primary carbon of where the double bond is.

Is this a correct answer.

Thank You  :D

If the double bond is broken, there would be two new bonding sites.  What would go on each?

If it's just the hydroboration step, then I think that is the correct product.

Arnyk, it's a hydrogen from the borane.  More on hydroboration here.
