Consider this reaction:
Br
CH3OH
Br-Br
H3CO
The mechanism proceeds through a first cationic intermediate, intermediate 1. Nucleophilic attack leads to intermediate 2, which goes on to form the final product. In cases that involve a
negatively charged nucleophile, the attack of the nucleophile leads directly to the product.

- HBr addition to ethylene is exothermic. What does this mean? Options: The rate determining step is the first step. The newly formed bonds are more stable (higher dissociation energy) than those broken in the reactants. The carbocation intermediate is higher energy than the alkene.
