Mercury(II) salts (fluoride, chloride, bromide, formate, acetate, trifluoroacetate, propionate, benzoate, nitrate, methanesulphonate, toluene-p-sulphonate, thiocyanate, and toluene-p-sulphinate) reacted with monoolefines and bromine or iodine to give 1,2-bifunctionalized products resulting from the addition of the halogen and the mercury(II) salt anion selectively.The addition was regiospecific for styrene and for 3,3-dimethylbut-1-ene affording Markownikoff type products, respectively.In the case of hex-1-ene both regioisomers were obtained.For cyclic alkenes trans-1,2-derivatives were stereoselectively obtained.Cycloocta-1,5-diene gave the monoaddition products.Buta-1,3-diene underwent mainly 1,2-addition and allylic derivatives gave the corresponding 1,2,3-trifunctionalized compounds.A possible ionic mechanism is proposed to explain the obtained addition products.

The reaction of mercury(II) salts (fluoride, chloride, bromide, nitrate, methanesulphonate, toluene-p-sulphinate, and toluene-p-sulphonate) and halogens (bromine or iodine) with alkenes leads to the corresponding 1,2-bifunctionalized products resulting fr
