Module 9
Addition to Alkenes and Alkynes
1
Electrophilic Addition to Alkenes: Carbocation Mechanism
Explain the mechanism of electrophilic addition to alkenes via carbocation intermediates.
2
Markovnikov's Rule and Carbocation Stability
Apply Markovnikov's rule and explain its electronic basis in carbocation stability.
3
Halogenation of Alkenes: Mechanism and Stereochemistry
Describe the mechanism and stereochemistry (anti-addition) of halogen addition to alkenes via a halonium ion intermediate.
4
Catalytic Hydrogenation: Mechanism and Stereoselectivity
Describe the mechanism of catalytic hydrogenation of alkenes and alkynes and explain its stereoselectivity (syn-addition).
5
Radical Addition to Alkenes: Mechanism and Anti-Markovnikov Prediction
Explain the mechanism of radical addition to alkenes (e.g., HBr with peroxides) and predict the anti-Markovnikov product.
6
Alkyne Addition Reactions: HX and H2O
Propose mechanisms for the addition of hydrogen halides and water to alkynes.
