RCH=CH 2 + HBr → RCHBrCH 3. Under free radical conditions, the direction of the addition can be reversed. Free-radical addition is used commercially for the synthesis of 1-bromoalkanes, precursors to tertiary amines and quaternary ammonium salts. 2-Phenethyl bromide (C 6 H 5 CH 2 CH 2 Br) is produced via this route from styrene.
A halogen addition reaction is a simple organic reaction where a halogen molecule is added to the carbon–carbon double bond of an alkene functional group. [1] The general chemical formula of the halogen addition reaction is: C=C + X 2 → X−C−C−X (X represents the halogens bromine or chlorine, and in this case, a solvent could be CH 2 ...
2-Bromohexane is the organobromine compound with the formula CH 3 CH(Br)(CH 2) 3 CH 3. It is a colorless liquid. The compound is chiral. Most 2-bromoalkanes are prepared by addition of hydrogen bromide to the 1-alkene. Markovnikov addition proceeds in the absence of free-radicals, i.e. give the 2-bromo derivatives. [2]
In organic chemistry, the Doering–LaFlamme allene synthesis is a reaction of alkenes that converts them to allenes by insertion of a carbon atom. [1] This name reaction is named for William von Eggers Doering and a co-worker, who first reported it.
2-Bromopentane is a bromoalkane and isomer of bromopentane. It is a colorless liquid. 2-Bromopentane is chiral and thus can be obtained as either of two stereoisomers designated as ( R )-2-bromopentane and ( S )-2-bromopentane, or as a racemic 1:1 mixture of the two enantiomers .

Most 1-bromoalkanes are prepared by free-radical addition of hydrogen bromide to the 1-alkene, which is 1-pentene in the case of 1-bromopentane. These conditions lead to anti-Markovnikov addition, giving the 1-bromo derivative. [2] It is also formed by the reaction of 1-pentanol with hydrogen bromide.
On the left, a filled pi-orbital on C 2 H 4 overlaps with an empty d-orbital on the metal. On the right, an empty pi-antibonding orbital on C 2 H 4 overlaps with a filled d-orbital on the metal. The Dewar–Chatt–Duncanson model is a model in organometallic chemistry that explains the chemical bonding in transition metal alkene complexes.
