E1 1 HCl Chapter 9 Problems CH3COOH Cl (racemic) 4. b-Elimination: E2 (Sections 9.6, 9.7) An E2 reaction occurs in one step: simultaneous reaction with base to remove a hydrogen, formation of the alkene, and departure of the leaving group. Elimination is stereoselective, requiring an anti and coplanar arrangement of the groups being eliminated. CH3CH2O2Na1 1 CH3CH2OH 1 Cl2 Cl CH3CH2OH 5. Neighboring Group Participation (Section 9.10) Neighboring group participation is characterized by rst-order kinetics and participation of an internal nucleophile in depar- ture of the leaving group, as in hydrolysis of a sulfur or nitrogen mustard gas. The mecha- nism for their solvolysis involves two successive nucleophilic displacements. Cl N Cl 1 2 H2O HO N OH 1 2 HCl Problems Red numbers indicate applied problems.
