Talk:Hydroboration

Is there a mistake?

In the "reactions involving substituted alkenes" section it says that electronic control determines the regioselectivity of the B-H addition. But in the drawing at the bottom they have drawn the markovnikov produkt as the major product (in the styrene derivative example). And no source for the 85%/15% reported yields are given so it is not easily verifiable. LWJ15 (talk) 10:30, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And citation 5 (where the hydroxylamine wiki page is referenced as a source for amine substitution of the borane adduct) is just atrocious. LWJ15 (talk) 10:38, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Additionally the article looks like a really blown up rag ruck where everybody just added new parts at the bottom with more or less disregard of what was written further up. The article needs a complete overhaul of its structure and the different pieces of information need to be grouped better. This is just an assesment after one readthrough. Maybe after some work with the article it'll emerge that there i no better way to group all the information. LWJ15 (talk) 10:50, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
