1
Q
E2
A
Elimination bimolecular, rate ∝ [RX][Base]
2
Q
Curtin-Hammett principle
A
Product distribution isn’t determined by the ground state populations of the two conformers but by the difference in activation energies between the two competing pathways
3
Q
Why is there no E2 in bicyclic systems
A
No antiperiplanar relationship between the leaving group and hydrogen on the adjacent carbons
4
Q

A
Antiperiplanar/1,2-transdiaxial
5
