The E2 Reaction
Torsional strain
In TS, a negative charge is develop at -carbon it undergo overlapping with *
staggered
anti-periplanar arrangement
Stabilizing interaction between filled
C-H bond and empty C-X *
antibonding bonding orbital
eclipsed
syn-periplanar
arrangement
Torsional strain
Caused by repulsion of the bonding electrons of one substituent with the bonding
electrons of a nearby substituent
