Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
Which of the following statements about the E2 elimination mechanism is true?
Steps
Concepts
Step 1: Understand that E2 elimination is a type of chemical reaction.
Step 2: Know that in E2, a strong base is needed to remove a hydrogen atom (proton) from the molecule.
Step 3: Recognize that while the base removes the proton, a leaving group (like a halide) is also leaving the molecule.
Step 4: Realize that this process happens in one single step, meaning both actions occur at the same time without any intermediate stages.
