Transcription of Elimination Reactions
{{id}} {{{paragraph}}}
Elimination ReactionsJust as there are two mechanisms of substitution (SN2 and SN1), there are twomechanisms of Elimination (E2 and E1).E2 mechanism bimoleculareliminationE1 mechanism unimolecular eliminationThe E2 and E1 mechanisms differ in the timing of bond cleavage and bond formation ,analogous to the SN2andSN1 and SN2 Reactions have some features in common, as do E1 and SN1 removes aproton from the -carbon atom,while the halogen atom leaves from the -carbonresulting in the formation of a - bond .

The E2 and E1 mechanisms differ in the timing of bond cleavage and bond formation, analogous to the S N 2and S N 1 mechanisms. E2 and S N 2 reactions have some features in common, as do E1 and S N 1 reactions. Base removes a proton from the β-carbon atom, while the halogen atom leaves from the α-carbon resulting in the formation of a π-bond ...
