A transformation removing two atoms or groups from a substrate, commonly forming a multiple bond.

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
Stepwise eliminations can share intermediates with substitution, while concerted eliminations do not contain a discrete intermediate.
The source supplies a substantive formal ingredient, dynamical sector, law, field content, or mechanism of the target theoretical framework.
wp-chem-organic-chemistryiupac-blue-bookpubchem-docsThis is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
Elimination mechanisms differ in molecularity, base dependence, stereoelectronic requirements, and competition with substitution.
A theory, law, or interaction describes the behavior of the target within a stated regime. The edge detail must state important limits or qualifications.

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
Elimination reactions supply alkene- and alkyne-forming steps in synthesis; competing substitution, stereoelectronic requirements, and reaction conditions determine selectivity.
The source supplies a substantive formal ingredient, dynamical sector, law, field content, or mechanism of the target theoretical framework.
