Elimination of HBr from 2-bromonorbornane gives only 2-norbornene and no 1-norbornene. How do you account for the regioselectivity of this dehydrohalogenation? In answering this question, you will find it helpful to look at molecular models of both 1-norbornene and 2-norbornene and analyze the strain in each. BH H.
