The rate law that governs E1cB mechanisms is relatively simple to determine. Consider the following reaction scheme. An example of an E1cB-elimination mechanism with a generic leaving group (LG), and ethoxide as the base. Assuming that there is a steady-state carbanion concentration in the mechanism, the rate law for an E1cB mechanism.
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. The numbers refer not to the number of steps in the mechanism, but rather to the ...
The requirement for a good leaving group is still relaxed in the case of C=C bond formation via E1cB mechanisms, but because of the relative weakness of the C=C double bond, the reaction still exhibits some leaving group sensitivity. Notably, changing the leaving group's identity (and willingness to leave) can change the nature of the mechanism ...
The mechanism for base-catalyzed aldol condensation can be seen in the image below. A mechanism for aldol condensation in basic conditions, which occurs via enolate intermediates and E1CB elimination. The process begins when a free hydroxide (strong base) strips the highly acidic proton at the alpha carbon of the aldehyde.
In organic chemistry, the E i mechanism (Elimination Internal/Intramolecular), also known as a thermal syn elimination or a pericyclic syn elimination, is a special type of elimination reaction in which two vicinal (adjacent) substituents on an alkane framework leave simultaneously via a cyclic transition state to form an alkene in a syn elimination.

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1) drugs are a class of medications used to manage type 2 diabetes and treat obesity. While many drugs in this class are relatively new, researchers ...
These plots were first introduced in a 1970 paper by R. A. More O’Ferrall to discuss mechanisms of β-eliminations [2] and later adopted by W. P. Jencks in an attempt to clarify the finer details involved in the general acid-base catalysis of reversible addition reactions to carbon electrophiles such as the hydration of carbonyls.
