Product A and B formed in the following set of reactions are:
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
The reaction shown indicates the process of hydrolysis and reduction of boranes. When B4H6 reacts with water and sodium hydroxide, it undergoes hydrolysis to produce alcohols and alkanes.
Understanding the Reactions: B4H6 is a borane compound, and its reaction with water in the presence of a base leads to the formation of organic products. The primary reactions involve the cleavage of the B-H bonds and subsequent formation of C-H and C-O bonds.
Products Formed: From the reaction conditions, it is clear that the product A formed from the hydrolysis will likely be a simple alcohol (such as methanol), while product B will be the corresponding alkane (like methane).
Thus, the correct identification of products A and B leads to: A = CH3, B = CH2OH

- Carbohydrates are polyhydroxy aldehydes or ketones that represent enormous structural diversity in terms of the arrangement of atoms in space, resulting in hundreds of stereoisomers. Although the chemical properties of most stereoisomers may not be very different, their metabolic rate and utilization in biological systems is significantly different and known to influence the overall carbohydrate metabolism. Structural variants, which arise due to a different arrangement of atoms in three-dimensional space are known as stereoisomers. The number of stereoisomers can be theoretically estimated by using the formula 2n, where ‘n’ is the number of stereocenters or asymmetric (chiral) carbon atoms in a molecule. Out of these stereoisomers, there are some structures, which are mirror images of each other, and they are referred to as enantiomers.
