The reaction is known as hydroboration-oxidation. In this reaction, B2H6 adds to the double bond of propene, resulting in the formation of an organoborane intermediate. Subsequent treatment with H2O2 converts the organoborane intermediate to an alcohol. Hydration follows anti-Markownikoff's rule.
In this hydration reaction, 1-methylcyclohexene (an alkene) is reacted with aqueous H3O+ (formed from water and a strong acid such as H2SO4), resulting in Markovnikov addition of water across the pi bond. The product is an alcohol.
