4 The E2 Mechanism-Why?

5 The E2 Mechanism-Regioselectivity

6 The E2 Mechanism-Regioselectivity Base Base methyl-1-butene methyl-2-butene

7 The E2 Mechanism-Regioselectivity Base Base 3 3 Attack of base Attack of base ofmann product (least substituted, and least stable alkene) Zaitsev product (most substituted, and most stable alkene) Kinetic product Thermodynamic product

8 The E2 Mechanism-Regioselectivity ~30% ~70%

9 The E2 Mechanism-Regioselectivity 2-bromopentane 1-pentene 2-pentene

10 The E2 Mechanism-Stereoselectivity

11 Regioselectivity-The tendency of a reaction to preferentially produce one constitutional isomer. Stereoselectivity-The tendency of a reaction to produce one of two stereoisomers in unequal amounts. Stereospecificity-Used to describe a reaction in which the configuration of the product is dependent on the configuration of the starting material.

12 The E2 Mechanism What if we change the base from methoxide to t-butoxide? 3 O 3 O 3 methoxide 3 t-butoxide A bulky base

13 The E2 Mechanism-Regioselectivity Bulky base attacks preferentially at least hindered position Base 3 Base Bulky base avoids hindered position ofmann product (least substituted) Zaitsev product (most substituted)

14 The E2 Mechanism-Regioselectivity Effect of Steric Bulk of Base

15 The E2 Mechanism-Regioselectivity Examples of Bulky Bases N N N 1,5-Diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-ene (DBN) 1,8-Diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) N

24 The E2 Mechanism-Stereoselectivity Base: Base: S Base: Base: Major product

25 The E2 Mechanism-Stereoselectvity Base: Base: R Base: Base: Major product

26 The E2 Mechanism-Stereoselectvity S Base R Base Note: The two enantiomers yield the same major product from an elimination reaction.

27 The E2 Mechanism-Stereospecificity Base: S R 3 3 3? Base: 3 3 Only product 3
