    E2 competes with the S N 2 reaction mechanism if the base can also act as a nucleophile (true for many common bases). Scheme 1: E2 reaction mechanism. An example of this type of reaction in scheme 1 is the reaction of isobutylbromide with potassium ethoxide in ethanol. The reaction products are isobutene, ethanol and potassium bromide.
