The currently implemented means in rpm to make dependencies dependent on OS are using

There are several competing ways (rather than one simple way) to achieve the perfectly obvious goal
of having a single build recipe for several different linux vendor distributions.
hi all,
can anybody give me pointers regarding "execution of Requires field in
spec file based on Operating System"
for ex:
if redhat i requires x and y rpm else i require x y z rpm's in same spec file
the %ifos directive in a spec file.

Every vendor has adopted different build configuration, so there is no one answer ... OpenSUSE
is likely closest to being useful.
