Reactions of Alkenes

Organic chemical reactions generally have three components: Reactants, Reagents & Products.

In this problem we shall consider three isomeric alkene reactants:
3-methyl-1-butene   2-methyl-2-butene   2-methyl-1-butene

These compounds may be reacted with eight different reagents:
HCl Br2 HOBr Hg(OAc)2
(aq. mercuric acetate)
NaBH4 B2H6
(BH3 in ether) 		H2O2
(in aq. NaOH) 		KMnO4
(in water)

From the following menu you may select the feature to be examined:
