Tertiary Halides: SN1 Vs E1

1. It is usually difficult to influence the relative position between S N1 and E1

products.
2. Increasing the temperature of the reaction favors reaction by the E1
mechanism at the expense of the SN1 mechanism.
3. If elimination product is desired, it is more convenient to add a strong base
and force an E2 reaction to take place.

 Elimination Unimolecular E1CB

It occurs In basic medium, where a poor L. G. (eg. F, -OH, -OR and an acidic H
eliminate to form an additional bond.

Substrate must have acidic H
