Halogenation of Alkenes | Mechanism | Stereochemistry | Examples

Halogenation of alkenes is one of the iconic reactions of these compounds and of the the first truly tricky ones most students typically encounter in their organic chemistry course. In this video, I'm going over the intricacies of this reaction.
00:00 What is the halogenation of alkenes?
01:14 Mechanism details
04:30 Example
09:46 Reaction with interhalides
13:28 Another example
14:58 trans and cis Stilbene halogenation
16:08 Example giving diastereomers

    Can't believe an explanation this good has so low recognition, this is the probably the only video which explained stereochemistry so well Thank u so much i was initially so confused but now its all good thanks to ur amazing explanation

    Glad it was helpful! My channel is fairly new, so hopefully, more students will find it in the future.

    @1:14 Showing the electrons move like that was top notch!

    Tell this to KZread algorithm 😂 I do appreciate your support though. I started seriously posting last September but my channel only started to pick up some pace in the spring, so just give it a bit time and I think more students will see these videos.

    In your first example at 5:15, isn't the bond between the C and BR SP3 hybridization? I thought the bond would be flat without coming forward or backward. Also, I is more electronegative than Cl, doesn't that mean I should be partial negative? Not partial positive?

    Bond cannot have any hybridization. It’s the carbon that’s sp3 hybridized. And precisely because of that it has a tetrahedral geometry. No, iodine is not more electronegative than chlorine. Look at your periodic table.
