Please give me an example of hydroboration- deboration reaction

The Hydroboration Oxidation reaction is an organic chemical reaction which is employed for the conversion of alkenes into alcohols that are neutral. This is done via a two-step process which includes a hydroboration step and an oxidation step. This is done by a net addition (across the entire double bond) of water. The hydroboration oxidation reaction mechanism can be considered as an anti-Markovnikov reaction where a hydroxyl group attaches itself to the carbon which is less substituted. The first time the Hydroboration oxidation reaction was reported was in the second half of the 1950s by the English born American chemist Herbert Charles Brown. He went on to win the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in the year 1979 for this work. Given below is the hydroboration reaction in its general form. This step begins with the addition of borane in the form of BH3 to the given double bond. This leads to the transfer of a hydrogen atom to the carbon atom that is adjacent to the carbon bonded with the boron atom. The hydroboration step described is now repeated twice, giving three alkenes that are attached to the boron atom from the initial BH3. The compound that results from the addition of three alkenes to the borane is referred to as trialkyl borane. This trialkyl borane is now treated with a base (or water) and hydrogen peroxide. Thus, the boron-carbon bonds are replaced with carbon-OH group bonds. The conversion of boron into boric acid is also observed. 1-hexene can be converted into 1-hexanol using this method as shown below.
