How are major products defined- Thermodynamically or Kinetically?
In many organic chemistry questions, we use mechanisms that favours thermodynamically stable product (like aromatic rings), compromising the rate by some factor. For example, if there were two ...

Kinetics for E1cb reactions
We were taught that the kinetics of a reaction is determined by the reactions ‘rate determining step’ which is also the slowest step of the reaction. For E1 as well as E2 reactions the slowest steps ...

Order of reaction greater than molecularity?
We were taught that the order of a reaction is either less than or equal to it's molecularity. But then I came across a mechanism called E1CB, where the fact was totally reversed. Here molecularity is ...
