The Reaction of Propene with Iodine Bromide
Alberts, Vincent,Carman, Raymond M.
, p. 455 - 459 (2007/10/02)
Iodobromination of propene gives a mixture (c. 60:40) of 2-bromo-1-iodopropane and 1-bromo-2-iodopropane.This mixture of kinetic control converts into an equilibrium (c. 70:30) mixture with heat.The addition to the double bond is postulated to occur through a bridged iodonium ion rather than through a simple carbocation, and hence Markownikoff's rule need not apply to this system
