Have you completed the learning unit SN/E Competition - Role of the Temperature and are looking for further material? We recommend the following learning units:
ChemistryOrganic ChemistrySubstitution Reactions
First, this learning unit describes the mechanistic reasons for the competition of elimination and nucleophilic substitution. Then, the different parameters that influence the SN1/E1 competition are discussed. After working through the learning unit, one should be able to predict, depending on given parameters, the predominant mechanism of a reaction or to choose the parameters of a reaction, so that a mechanism desired actually mainly occurs, respectively.

First, this learning unit describes the mechanistic reasons for the competition of elimination and nucleophilic substitution. Then, the different parameters that influence the SN2/E2 competition are discussed. After working through the learning unit, one should be able to predict, depending on given parameters, the predominant mechanism of a reaction or to choose the parameters of a reaction, so that a mechanism desired actually mainly occurs, respectively.
