Oxidative demercuration alkoxymercuration

Thus good yields of p-alkoxy alcdiols can be obtained, albeit as diastereomeric mixtures, but unfortunately hydtoxymercurated alkenes unda similar conditions do not lead to useful products. Despite this iqrparent limitation, alkoxymercuration-oxidative demercuration has been very effective in a number of systems described below, and there is no doubt it is a procedure worth consi ration for hydroxy group introduction. 

The removal of a mercury species from a molecule. Demercuration of the products of oxymer-curation and alkoxymercuration is usually accomplished using sodium borohydride. (p. 340) (hydroxylation) The addition of two hydroxyl groups, one at each carbon of the double bond formally, an oxidation, (p. 364)...
