ELIMINATION MECHANISMS MENUElimination reactions involving halogenoalkanes
The formation of an alkene (propene) from 2-bromopropane. Explains how to cope with cases where more than one elimination product can be formed from a single halogenoalkane. Discusses how the reaction between a halogenoalkane and hydroxide ions can lead to either an elimination reaction or nucleophilic substitution.
The dehydration of alcohols
Facts and mechanism for the dehydration of ethanol using an acid catalyst to give ethene. Explains how to cope with cases where more than dehydration product is possible. Go to menu of other types of mechanism. . .
