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]
