Diverse Reactions of Alkenes
• Alkenes react with many electrophiles to give useful products by addition (often through special reagents)– alcohols (add H-OH)– alkanes (add H-H)– halohydrins (add HO-X)– dihalides (add X-X)– halides (add H-X)– diols (add HO-OH)– cyclopropane (add :CH2)

Example: Mechanism of Bromine Addition
• Electrophilic addition of bromine to give a cation is followed by cyclization to give a bromonium ion.
• This bromoniun ion is a reactive electrophile and bromide ion is a good nucleophile.– Gives trans addition.
