Hi, I heard about this that in electrophlic addition in alkenes, bromine attaches to the end of alkene molecule that have less number of carbon atoms. They were calling it a marconi carb rule sort of thing. If any one knows about it or something similar could you tell me and explain it to me what it is? I would appreciate it!
