E1 and E2 reactions

In this tutorial, Jay covers the E1 elimination mechanism, carbocation rearrangements, and the details of the E2 elimination reaction.

E1 mechanism: kinetics and substrate

E1 elimination: regioselectivity

E1 mechanism: stereoselectivity

E1 mechanism: carbocations and rearrangements

E2 mechanism: kinetics and substrate

E2 mechanism: regioselectivity

E2 elimination: Stereoselectivity

E2 elimination: Stereospecificity

E2 elimination: Substituted cyclohexanes

Regioselectivity, stereoselectivity, and stereospecificity
