Question

discuss e2 reaction write factor affecting on the rate of E2 reaction and sterochemistry​

Answer 1

Answer:

E2 reaction is also known as trans elimination.

In this reaction the Carbon changes from sp3 hybridisation to sp2 hybridisation.

It takes place in a single step .

the rate of the reaction depends on the concentration of the substrate and the Nucleophile.

It follows Second order kinetics.

Stereochemistry : Retention of configuration (there is no change in the configuration).
