  2. 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 ...

  3. Elimination theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elimination_theory

    This is the case of the theory of polynomials over an algebraically closed field, where elimination theory may be viewed as the theory of the methods to make quantifier elimination algorithmically effective. Quantifier elimination over the reals is another example, which is fundamental in computational algebraic geometry.

  4. Reductive elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reductive_elimination

    Reductive elimination is an elementary step in organometallic chemistry in which the oxidation state of the metal center decreases while forming a new covalent bond between two ligands. It is the microscopic reverse of oxidative addition , and is often the product-forming step in many catalytic processes.

  5. Hofmann elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hofmann_elimination

    The Cope elimination is very similar to the Hofmann elimination in principle, but occurs under milder conditions. It also favors the formation of the Hofmann product, and for the same reasons. [3] An example of a Hofmann elimination (not involving a contrast between a Zaitsev product and a Hofmann product) is the synthesis of trans-cyclooctene. [4]

  6. Process of elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_of_elimination

    Process of elimination is a logical method to identify an entity of interest among several ones by excluding all other entities. In educational testing , it is a process of deleting options whereby the possibility of an option being correct is close to zero or significantly lower compared to other options.

  7. E1cB-elimination reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E1cB-elimination_reaction

    The E1cB elimination reaction is a type of elimination reaction which occurs under basic conditions, where the hydrogen to be removed is relatively acidic, while the leaving group (such as -OH or -OR) is a relatively poor one. Usually a moderate to strong base is present. E1cB is a two-step process, the first step of which may or may not be ...

  8. Elimination reaction of free radicals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elimination_reaction_of...

    This process is known as the radical mediated depolymerization of polystyrene. Radical elimination reactions are found in enzyme-catalyzed pathways. In the dehydrogenation reaction of acyl-CoA to form enoyl-CoA, FAD accepts two protons and two electrons to form FADH2 under the catalysis of acyl-CoA dehydrogenase . [ 3 ]

  9. Alpha elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_elimination

    In organic chemistry, alpha-elimination refers to reactions of this type: [1] R 2 CHX → R 2 C: + HX. The reaction is employed to generate carbenes and nitrenes. The formation of dichlorocarbene from chloroform is an example.
