  2. Stereoselectivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoselectivity

    An example of modest stereoselectivity is the dehydrohalogenation of 2-iodobutane which yields 60% trans-2-butene and 20% cis-2-butene. [5] Since alkene geometric isomers are also classified as diastereomers, this reaction would also be called diastereoselective.

  3. Stereospecificity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereospecificity

    A stereospecific mechanism specifies the stereochemical outcome of a given reactant, whereas a stereoselective reaction selects products from those made available by the same, non-specific mechanism acting on a given reactant. Given a single, stereoisomerically pure starting material, a stereospecific mechanism will give 100% of a particular ...

  4. Elimination reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elimination_reaction

    Elimination reaction of cyclohexanol to cyclohexene with sulfuric acid and heat [1] An elimination reaction is a type of organic reaction in which two substituents are removed from a molecule in either a one- or two-step mechanism. [2] The one-step mechanism is known as the E2 reaction, and the two-step mechanism is known as the E1 reaction ...

  5. Hammond's postulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammond's_postulate

    Unimolecular Elimination Reaction Mechanism. An E1 reaction consists of a unimolecular elimination, where the rate determining step of the mechanism depends on the removal of a single molecular species. This is a two-step mechanism. The more stable the carbocation intermediate is, the faster the reaction will proceed, favoring the products.

  8. SN1 reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SN1_reaction

    If the reaction is performed under warm or hot conditions (which favor an increase in entropy), E1 elimination is likely to predominate, leading to formation of an alkene. At lower temperatures, S N 1 and E1 reactions are competitive reactions and it becomes difficult to favor one over the other. Even if the reaction is performed cold, some ...

  9. Stereoelectronic effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoelectronic_effect

    The stereoelectronic effect affecting the outcome of the facial selectivity of the diene in the Diels–Alder reaction is the interaction between the σ(C(sp 2)–CH 3) (when σ(C(sp 2)–X) is a better acceptor than a donor) or σ(C(sp 2)–X) (when σ(C(sp 2)–X) is a better donor than an acceptor) and the σ* orbital of the forming bond ...
