Consider the prototypical Aldol condensation reaction below. The elimination of water is not an E2 mechanism but rather a new elimination mechanism. In the space provided below, (1) tell me the full name of this new mechanism, and (2) explain WHY the reaction adopts this new mechanism. Your answer does not need to be more than 3-4 sentences long. но- H3C. CH3 CH3
