Sect 8.4: Addition of Hydrogen Halides: Markovnikov’s rule 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 greaternumber of hydrogens. • “Them that has, gets!” • “The richer get richer!” (V. W. Markovnikov -- 1838 - 1904) WWU -- Chemistry
Markovnikov WWU -- Chemistry
MARKOVNIKOV RULE When adding HX to a double bond the hydrogen of HX goes to the carbon which already has the most hydrogens C H C H 3 2 C l + HCl ..... conversely, the anion X adds to the most highly substituted carbon ( the carbon with most alkyl groups attached). WWU -- Chemistry

Bromination of an Unsymmetrical Alkene 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 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.
