Abstract

Abstract: Appropriately prepared silica gel and alumina have been found to mediate the addition of HC1, HBr, and HI to alkenes. The technique has been rendered even more convenient by the use of various organic and inorganic halides that undergo hydrolysis in the presence of silica gel or alumina to generate hydrogen halides in situ. Under these conditions alkenes such as cycloheptene (l), 1-octene (7), and 3, 3-dimethyl-l-butene (15), ...
