One reaction of this type is the basis of the Herzig-Meyer determination test, while another reaction of this type creates sulfur dioxide from alpha-halo sulfones.
One reaction of this type is the basis of the Herzig-Meyer determination test, while another reaction of this type creates sulfur dioxide from alpha-halo sulfones. Another reaction of this type uses o-nitrophenylselenocynate and tributylphosphine. Yet another reaction of this type uses carbon disulfide to convert the reactant into a xanthate. Besides the Ramberg-Backlund, Greico, and Chugaev varieties, another one has a 5-member cyclic transition state and generates an amine oxide and is named for Cope. Adding excess methyl iodide to an amine is the Hoffman method of this. General mechanisms for this include a one-step mechanism that is accelerated when the substrate is in the antiperiplanar configuration; that mechanism is dubbed E2. For 10 points, name this type of reaction in which substituents are removed from a molecule.
