Kharasch in the 1940s. The basic reaction scheme runs as follows: R2C=CH2 + R'X \u2192 R2CX-CH2R': and proceeds through the CXCl2 free radical. Examples of organohalides are carbon tetrachloride and chloroform. The addition is an anti-Markovnikov addition. Early work linked the addition to olefin polymerization and is therefore considered a first step into what was to become atom transfer radical polymerization."@en . . . . . . .
