It was established that the regioselectivity in the addition of mercury acetate to β-methylstyrene and its derivatives in methanol depends on the nature of the substituent in the aromatic ring.For substrates with strong electron-donating groups the products are formed according to the Markovnikov rule; in the change to substrates with electron-withdrawing substituents the regioselectivity of addition is reversed.The reaction rate constants are described by the Brown-Okamoto equation with a very low ρ+ value for electrophilic reagents.

Bromination and oxymercuration of carbon-carbon double bonds represent classical examples of electrophilic addition, but they nonetheless show quite divergent patterns of reactivities for various olefins.However, the olefin reactivities are identical when
