Acid Catalyzed Hydration
HA OH

HA HO OH
acid activates the carbonyl making it more reactive (more electrophilic) so water can add
O H+ OH
carbonyl is more electrophilic
OH -OH
nucleophile is more reactive
Nuc H Nuc
Base Catalyzed Hydration
O OH O OH HO OH
hydroxide is a more reactive nucleophile than water and can add more readily to the carbonyl
