AI Generated Solution

### Step-by-Step Text Solution for E2 Reaction **Step 1: Identify the Reactants** - In an E2 reaction, we typically start with a tertiary alkyl halide (R-X), where R is an alkyl group and X is a halogen (like Cl, Br, or I). **Step 2: Choose a Strong Base** - A strong base is required to facilitate the elimination process. Common strong bases used in E2 reactions include sodium hydride (NaH), sodium amide (NaNH2), or potassium tert-butoxide (KOtBu). ...
