Such reactions are influenced by a variety of factors, under which the different branches of the investigations may conveniently be considered. These include:- 1. Influence of the halogen. 2. Environment of the double bond. 3. Influence of solvent. 4. Kinetics of the reactions. 5. Influence of radiation. 6. Effect of water.pdfen-NZBromineText
