  2. Enantiomeric excess - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enantiomeric_excess

    This has led to informal use the two terms as interchangeable, especially because optical purity was the traditional way of measuring enantiomeric excess. However, other methods such as chiral column chromatography and NMR spectroscopy can now be used for measuring the amount of each enantiomer individually.

    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.
