Peroxide effect or kharasch effect or anti-markovnikoff rule is applicable when HBr reacts with unsaturated hydrocarbon in the presence of peroxide. In this reaction, the Br atom gets attached to that doubly bonded carbon atom which has more number of hydrogen atoms attached to it while H atom if HBr gets attached to the other carbon atom which has less number of hydrogen atoms.

E.g:- CH₃-CH=CH₂ + HBr(peroxide) → CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-Br

It is an example of free radical addition reaction.
