Chapter 11, Problem 11.25P

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The alkene which on reaction with ${\text{OsO}}_{\text{4}}$ or ${\text{KMnO}}_{\text{4}}$ gives the desired glycol, is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

In organic chemistry, different types of reactions are possible. Different types of reactions are substitution reactions, elimination reactions, oxidation reactions and reduction reactions. Glycol is a molecule in which two hydroxyl groups are present to the adjacent carbon atoms. In presence of ${\text{OsO}}_{\text{4}}$ or ${\text{KMnO}}_{\text{4}}$, alkene is converted into a glycol. Addition of hydroxyl group always takes place in syn manner.
