Chapter 9: Q94P (page 391)

Rank the following from most reactive to least reactive in an E2reaction:

Short Answer

Expert verified

Elimination reaction often competes with substitution reactions. In this reaction, a substrate (typically an alkyl halide) eliminates one equivalent (unit) of acid to form an alkene. Two possible mechanisms are available for this elimination reaction 鈥�E1 and E2 mechanisms.

Step by step solution

01

Definition of elimination reaction

Elimination reaction often competes with substitution reactions. In this reaction, a substrate (typically an alkyl halide) eliminates one equivalent (unit) of acid to form an alkene. Two possible mechanisms are available for this elimination reaction 鈥�E1 and E2 mechanisms.

02

Step 2:

The first compound has two axial hydrogens attached to beta carbon, the second compound has one axial hydrogen attached to the beta carbon, but it cannot form the more substituted product alkene that can be formed by the first compound. The last compound does not have axial hydrogens attached to beta carbon so it cannot undergo E2 reaction.
