However, the conceivable interference from these bimolecular elimination processes does not affect the estimate of the rate constants of Table 5, provided that they occur to the same extent irrespective of the specific isomer (cf., ref 3c). In this case, in fact, occurrence of bimolecular E2 and E2′ eliminations may affect the absolute yields of the racemization and isomerization products, but not their relative distribution.
