  5. KOC(CH3)3 dimethyl sulfoxide CH3(CH2)15CH CH2 (86%) Dehydrohalogenation When the alkyl halide is primary, potassiumtert-butoxide in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), a strong non-protic polar solvent is the base/solvent system that is normally used. CH3(CH2)15CH2CH2Cl

  6. KOCH2CH3 Br ethanol, 70°C Regioselectivity • follows Zaitsev's rule • more highly substituted double bond predominates + 71 % 29 %

  11. The E2 Mechanism of Dehydrohalogenation of Alkyl Halides

  12. Empirical Data • (1) Dehydrohalogenation of alkyl halides exhibits second-order kinetics • first order in alkyl halide first order in base rate = k[alkyl halide][base] • implies that rate-determining step involves both base and alkyl halide; i.e., it is bimolecular

  13. Question • The reaction of 2-bromobutane with KOCH2CH3 in ethanol produces trans-2-butene. If the concentration of both reactants is doubled, what would be the effect on the rate of the reaction? • A) halve the rate • B) double the rate • C) quadruple the rate • D) no effect on the rate

  14. Empirircal Data • (2) Rate of elimination depends on halogen • weaker C—X bond; faster rate rate: RI > RBr > RCl > RF • implies that carbon-halogen bond breaks in the rate-determining step

  15. The E2 Mechanism • concerted (one-step) bimolecular process • single transition state • C—H bond breaks •  component of double bond forms • C—X bond breaks

  20. Question • Which one of the following best describes a mechanistic feature of the reaction of 3-bromopentane with sodium ethoxide? • A) The reaction occurs in a single step which is bimolecular. • B) The reaction occurs in two steps, both of which are unimolecular. • C) The rate-determining step involves the formation of the carbocation (CH3CH2)2CH+. • D) The carbon-halogen bond breaks in a rapid step that follows the rate-determining step.

  21. Stereochemistry:Anti Elimination in E2 Reactions • Stereoelectronic Effects

  22. E2 –Stereoelectronic Effect • Considerdehydrohalogenation of chlorocyclohexane. • Ananti-periplanar T.S. is required and only the chair conformation on the left alllowsfor the elimination to occur.

  23. Stereoelectronic Effect • An effect on reactivity that has its origin in the spatial arrangement of orbitals or bonds is called a stereoelectronic effect. • The preference for an anti coplanar arrangement of H and Br in the transition state for E2 dehydrohalogenation is an example of a stereoelectronic effect.

  24. Br (CH3)3C (CH3)3C Stereoelectronic Effect KOC(CH3)3(CH3)3COH cis-1-Bromo-4-tert- butylcyclohexane

  25. (CH3)3C Br (CH3)3C Stereoelectronic Effect trans-1-Bromo-4-tert- butylcyclohexane KOC(CH3)3(CH3)3COH

  26. Br (CH3)3C (CH3)3C Br (CH3)3C Stereoelectronic Effect cis KOC(CH3)3(CH3)3COH • Rate constant for dehydrohalogenation of 1,4- cis is >500 times than that of 1,4- trans KOC(CH3)3(CH3)3COH trans

  27. Br (CH3)3C (CH3)3C Stereoelectronic Effect cis KOC(CH3)3(CH3)3COH • H that is removed by base must be anti coplanar to Br • Two anti coplanar H atoms in cis stereoisomer H H

  28. H Br H (CH3)3C H H (CH3)3C Stereoelectronic Effect trans KOC(CH3)3(CH3)3COH • H that is removed by base must be anti coplanar to Br • No anti coplanar H atoms in trans stereoisomer; all vicinal H atoms are gauche to Br; therefore infinitesimal or no product is formed

  29. Question • Which of the two molecules below will NOT be able to undergo an E2 elimination reaction? B)

  30. Stereoelectronic Effect 1,4- cis more reactive 1,4- trans much less reactive

  31. E2 –Regioselectivity • Sterically unhindered bases favor the Zaitsev product. • Stericallyhindered bases favor the Hofmann product. • See: SKILLBUILDER 8.5.
