Module 8
Elimination Reactions
1
E2 Elimination: Mechanism and Stereochemistry
Describe the detailed mechanism of E2 reactions and explain the requirement for anti-periplanar geometry.
2
Predicting Alkene Products: Zaitsev & Hofmann Rules
Explain Zaitsev's and Hofmann's rules by analyzing transition state stability for different bases and substrates.
3
E1 vs. SN1: Unpacking Reaction Mechanisms
Describe the detailed mechanism of E1 reactions and explain why they often accompany SN1 reactions.
4
Predicting E1/E2 Elimination Products & Stereoisomers
Predict the major and minor elimination products, including stereoisomers, for E1 and E2 reactions.
5
SN1/SN2 vs. E1/E2: Competing Pathways
Analyze the competition between substitution (SN1/SN2) and elimination (E1/E2) reactions.
6
E1cB Reactions: Mechanism and Substrate Recognition
Describe the mechanism of E1cB reactions and identify substrates prone to this pathway.
