Using Br2 under acidic conditions, an intermediate enol is formed which adds bromine at the a-position. The reaction stops after the addition of one bromine because the electron-withdrawing halogen decreases the basicity of the carbonyl oxygen, making the protonation less favorable.

- 3. An alcohol containing natural product A (C10H200) that is a common ingredient in cough drops yields two structurally isomeric alkenes, 1 and 2, on dehydration. Ozonolysis followed by an oxidative workup or a reductive workup as shown yields 3 and 4 from 1 and 2, respectively. Hydroboration of alkene 1 yields the starting alcohol A as the major product from 1. Hydroboration yields a mixture of the starting alcohol A and a diastereomer of A starting from alkene 2.
