Third edition e2vm1 effective from 1 july 2004 e2as1 effective from 1 february 2005 amendment 1. Models with different frequencies are also available to prevent mutual interference.
In fact, this is a key reason for the concerted nature of the e 2 reaction 3removal of a proton from a typical sp carbon is only energetically possible if it is linked to the simultaneous expulsion of a good leaving group. The alpha proton in an e2 reaction substrate is also only weakly acidic because the bond between the alpha proton and the alpha carbon is relatively strong.

Comparison of e1 and e2 reactions effect of substrate in a e1 reaction a carbocation is formed in a e2 reaction an alkene is formed in the rate determining step follows zaitsev rule where a more substituted alkene is favored therefore for both e1 and e2 reactions the stability follows the trend. The key difference between e1 and e2 reactions is that e1 reactions have unimolecular elimination mechanism whereas e2 reactions have bimolecular. An elimination reaction is a type of organic reaction in which two substituents are removed from a molecule in either a one or twostep mechanism.

In a number of ways, these mechanisms are similar to the sn1 and sn2 mechanisms we described in chapter 7.
The actual mechanism can be one of two types, e1 or e2, depending. The numbers do not have to do with the number of steps in the mechanism, but rather the kinetics of the reaction. When alkyl halides react with bases, the halides and hydrogen of the adjacent carbon are eliminated, and alkenes are obtained. This pathway is a concerted process with the following characteristics. S n2, e2, s n1, e1 1 s n2 s n1 e1 s n1 and e1 have identical rate determining steps, so they generally occur simultaneously and have the same properties.
