Vedclass · Answer

(B) $NaBH_4$ is a selective reducing agent that reduces carbonyl groups (aldehydes and ketones) to alcohols but does not reduce carbon-carbon double bonds $(C=C)$.In the given reaction,the ketone group of cyclopent$-3-$en$-1-$one is reduced to an alcohol group,while the double bond remains unaffected.Therefore,the major product is cyclopent$-3-$en$-1-$ol.

The major product of the following reaction is:
