15. WWU -- Chemistry Sect 8.4: Addition of Hydrogen Halides: Markovnikov’s rule

16. WWU -- Chemistry Markovnikov’s Rule In the ionic addition of an acid to the carbon-carbon double bond of an alkene, the hydrogen of the acid attaches itself to the carbon atom which already holds the greater number of hydrogens. –“Them that has, gets!” –“The richer get richer!” (V. W. Markovnikov -- 1838 - 1904)

17. WWU -- Chemistry Markovnikov Markovnikov Not Markovnikov

18. WWU -- Chemistry

19. MARKOVNIKOV RULE CH 2 + HCl CH 3 Cl When adding HX to a double bond the hydrogen of HX goes to the carbon which already has the most hydrogens..... conversely, the anion X adds to the most highly substituted carbon ( the carbon with most alkyl groups attached).

42. WWU -- Chemistry Bromination of an Unsymmetrical Alkene

43. WWU -- Chemistry Stereochemistry of Bromination of Alkenes Simple alkenes: Addition of bromine or chlorine goes exclusively anti, with the formation of a bridged ion If a resonance-stabilized open-chain carbocation is possible, there may be a mixture of mechanisms, with some molecules reacting via a bridged ion and some molecules reacting via an open- chain carbocation

44. WWU -- Chemistry Stereochemistry of Bromination of Alkenes --Part Two In cases where a resonance-stabilized carbocation is possible, if the solvent is made more polar (acetic acid or nitromethane), the proportion of molecules reacting via an open-chain carbocation increases. For simple alkenes, changing solvents has little or no effect on stereochemistry.
