The Common Theme in Addition Reactions of Alkenes
First step: The C=C π-bond act as a source of available electrons, attacks electron-deficient species.

Hydro-Halogenation Reaction (Addition of hydrogen halides)
General Equation: General Comments:
• Functional Group Transformation:
• Rearrangement? • Variety of solvents are used: C6H6, C5H12, CH3COOH, CHCl3, etc…
• Reactivity of Halides: HF << HCl < HBr < HI
The Reason:
• Regiochemistry of addition: (Reaction is Regioselective)
H X+XH

Hydrogenation
General Equation: General Remarks:
• Functional Group Transformation:
• Two C-H Bonds are formed. (Very Strong)
• Very exothermic: ΔHrxn < 0
• Catalysts: Pd, Pt, Rh, or Ni: all Solid metals (heterogeneous catalysis) • Stereochemistry of addition: Syn Addition: Addition of both H’s takes place on THE SAME FACE of the double bond. (Reaction is Stereospecific)
Reaction happens in one step.
