Key Concepts

Electrophilic Addition Reactions

These reactions involve an electrophile adding to the pi bond of unsaturated compounds such as alkenes and alkynes, transforming carbon–carbon multiple bonds into single bonds. They are fundamental in organic synthesis for converting unsaturated substrates into a variety of functionalized products.

Markovnikov's Rule

Markovnikov's rule predicts the regioselectivity of electrophilic addition reactions, stating that during the addition of a protic acid to an unsymmetrical alkene or alkyne, the proton attaches to the carbon with more hydrogen atoms. This rule helps determine the placement of substituents in the final product.

Geminal Versus Vicinal Dihalides

Geminal dihalides have two halogen atoms attached to the same carbon atom, while vicinal dihalides have halogen atoms attached to two adjacent carbons. Understanding this difference is crucial when designing reactions, as specific conditions and substrates are necessary to control whether the reaction yields a geminal or vicinal dihalide.
