Mechanism for Alkyl halide + strong base → depends on:
- Type of leaving group
- 0°,1° → SN2
- 2°→Elimination (E2) and Substitution (SN2)
- 3° →E2
- favors Zaitsev (more substituted) as major product
- examples of strong bases:
- OR- (OEt, OMe)
- OH-
a) leaving group: 3° RX → strong base: OEt- → E2 (Zaitsev)
