Chapter 6 -  Reactions of Alkenes 

Hydrogen peroxide

________ and tert butyl hydroperoxide are two secondary oxidizing agents that are often utilized for this purpose.

inert solvent

The alkene is dissolved in a(n) ________, such as CH2Cl2, and an ozone stream is bubbled through the solution.

Boron

________ contains three electrons in its valence shell (atomic number 5)

BH3

________ is a planar molecule with 120° H- B- H bond angles (as shown in the image attached)

NaHSO3

Typically, the osmate is directly treated with a reducing agent, such as ________, which cleaves the osmium- oxygen bonds, yielding cis glycol and reduced forms of osmium.

Hydrolysis

________ of the reaction mixture with water produces hydrogen peroxide, an oxidizing agent capable of causing additional oxidations.

Boron

________ utilizes sp2 hybrid orbitals to form bonds with three additional atoms.
