Although stepwise, bromination of alkenes does not have the possibility of rearrangement because the intermediate is a rather rigid and closed bridge, and not an open carbocation. O halogenation reactions do not have rearrangements. None of the answers is accurate. O the intermediate is an open carbocation, and not a rigid bridge.
Alkenes are oxidized to give epoxides on treatment with a peroxyacid, RCO;H, such as metachloroperoxybenzoic acid (MCPBA). Peroxyacids transfer an oxygen atom to the alkene with syn stereochemistry, i.e. both C-O bonds form on the same face of the double bond, through a single step mechanism without intermediates. The oxygen atom farthest from the carbonyl group is the one transferred. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the mechanism. Arrow-pushing Instructions H. CI CI HO

Electrophilic addition to an alkene proceeds via Markovnikov regiochemistry due to the formation of the more stable carbocation intermediate. In the case of conjugated dienes, that is dienes that are separated by one sigma bond, the carbocation that is formed is stabilized additionally by resonance. Addition of the nucleophile to the carbocation intermediate can therefore give two types of products: direct addition to the double bond, also called 1,2-addition, and conjugate addition to the resonance stabilized carbocation, also called 1,4-addition.Allylic carbocation stability is affected by both the nature of the carbocation (primary allylic, secondary allylic, or tertiary allylic) and by the degree of substitution of the double bond. The latter is typically the dominant effect and so a primary allylic carbocation with a trisubstituted double bond is more stable than a tertiary allylic carbocation with a monosubstituted double bond.Electrophilic addition to a conjugated diene is…
