In the addition reaction of propene with bromine water, propene first reacts with Br ₂ to form the bromonium ion intermediate and bromide ion. The intermediate then reacts with Br ⁻ / H ₂ O to form different products as shown below. Propene Br ₂ / H ₂ O aligned & Bromonium ion & intermediate aligned Br ⁻ / H ₂ O Products The intermediate is formed by conversion of one -bond of propene to two bonds, connecting Br ⁺ wi
Options
