3. Both El and E2 reactions are possible with 3° alkyl halides. Which elimination mechanism would be favored by the base NaOH? Show the curved arrow mechanism leading to both regioisomers. Draw the energy diagram for this reaction and include the transition state structure leading to each of the possible products. Indicate which one would be favored and use the energy diagram to explain your reasoning. How would you favor the other regioisomer?
