Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
8.1 Introduction to Elimination
• Elimination reactions often compete with substitution
reactions.
• What are the two main ingredients for a substitution?
– A nucleophile and an electrophile with a leaving group
• What are the two main ingredients for an elimination?
– A base and an electrophile with a leaving group
• How is a base both similar and different from a
nucleophile?

8.3 Alkene Nomenclature
•
Alkenes are named using the same procedure we used
in Chapter 4 to name alkanes with minor modifications
1. Identify the parent chain, which should include the C=C
double bond
2. Identify and Name the substituents
3. Assign a locant (and prefix if necessary) to each substituent.
Give the C=C double bond the lowest number possible
4. List the numbered substituents before the parent name in
alphabetical order. Ignore prefixes (except iso) when ordering
alphabetically
5. The C=C double bond locant is placed either just before the
parent name or just before the -ene suffix

8-9
Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
8.3 Alkene Nomenclature
1. Identify the parent chain, which should include the C=C
double bond
• The name of the parent chain should end in -ene rather
than –ane
•
The parent chain should include the C=C double bond

8.3 Alkene Nomenclature
2. Identify and Name the substituents
3. Assign a locant (and prefix if necessary) to each
substituent. Give the C=C double bond the lowest
number possible
–
The locant is ONE number, NOT two. Although the double
bond bridges carbons 2 and 3, the locant is the lower of those
two numbers

8.4 Alkene Isomerism
•
•
For the pi bond to remain intact, rotation around a
double bond is prohibited
As a result, cis and trans structures are not identical
•
Is there a difference between cis-butane and transbutane?
•
What specific type of isomers are cis and trans butene?

Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
8.4 Alkene Isomerism
•
In cyclic alkenes with less than 8 atoms in the ring, only
cis alkenes are stable. WHY?
•
Draw the structure for trans-cyclooctene
•
When applied to bicycloakenes, this rule is called
Bredt’s rule

8-15
Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
8.4 Alkene Isomerism
•
Apply Bredt’s rule to the compounds below
•
The carbons of the C=C double bond and the atoms that
are directly attached to them must be planar to
maintain the pi bond overlap.
A handheld model can be used to help visualize the p
orbital overlap and resulting geometry

Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
8.4 Alkene Isomerism
•
Cis and trans modifiers are strictly used to describe C=C
double bonds with identical groups on each carbon.
Where are the identical groups in trans-2-pentene?
•
For molecules with different groups attached to the C=C
double bond, the E/Z notation is used instead of
cis/trans notation

8-18
Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
8.4 Alkene Isomerism
•
Assigning E or Z to a stereoisomers
1. prioritize the groups attached to the C=C double bond based
on atomic number
2. If the top priority groups are on the same side of the C=C
double bond, it is Z (for zussamen, which means together)
3. If the top priority groups are on opposite sides of the C=C
double bond, it is E (for entgegen, which means opposite)

8.7 The Effect of Substrate on E2
•
•
The kinetics of E2 and SN2 are quite similar. WHY?
However, tertiary substrates are unreactive toward SN2
while they react readily by E2. WHY?
Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
8-30
Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
8.7 The Effect of Substrate on E2
•
3° substrates are more reactive toward E2 than are 1°
substrates even though 1° substrates are less hindered
•
The 3° substrate should proceed through a more stable
transition state (kinetically favored) and a more stable
product (thermodynamically favored). Let’s take a look
at the energy diagram – see next slide

the transition state
energy and the
product energy be
different if the
substrate were 1°?

8.7 Regioselectivity of E2
•
•
•
•
If there are multiple reactive sites or regions on a
molecule, multiple products are possible
In elimination reactions, there are often different β sites
that could be deprotonated to yield different alkenes
Zaitsev product
What is the relationship
between the alkene
products?
Regioselectivity occurs
when one constitutional
product is formed
predominantly over the
Hofmann product
other

8-35
Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
8.7 Regioselectivity of E2
•
•
Why does the Zaitsev product predominate when a
base that is NOT sterically hindered is used?
Is the Zaitsev product kinetically favored,
thermodynamically favored, or both?

8-36
Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
8.7 Regioselectivity of E2

product more stable
for the trans product?

•
•
•
What is the difference between stereoselective and
stereospecific?

to be eliminated
You might imagine that it would be
possible to form both the E and Z alkene
products from this reaction. Draw both
the E and the Z products

8-39
Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e

product is observed

a slightly lower transition state?

Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
8.7 Stereospecificity of E2
•
•
•
To rationalize the stereospecificty of the reaction,
consider the transition state for the reaction
In the transition state, the C-H and C-Br bonds that are
breaking must be rotated into the same plane as the pi
bond that is forming
Draw the transition state structure illustrating the
coplanar geometry

projections and hand held models can be helpful

8-43
Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
8.7 Stereospecificity of E2
•
•
•
•
Evidence suggests that a strict 180° angle is not
necessary for E2 mechanisms.
Similar angles (175–179°) are sufficient
The term, anti-periplanar is generally used instead of
anti-coplanar to account for slight deviations from
coplanarity
Although the E isomer is usually more stable because it
is less sterically hindered, the requirement for an antiperiplanar transition state can often lead to the less
stable Z isomer

•
How does the substrate reactivity trend for E1 compare
to the trend we discussed in chapter 7 for SN1? WHY?

reactivity trend above, we must compare the energy
diagrams for each substrate

•
•
•
•

reaction like we can in and E2 reaction?
