  • Alkyl halides on heating with alcoholic potash eliminate one molecule of halogen acid to form alkenes.
  • This reaction is known as dehydrohalogenation i.e. removal of halogen acid.
  • This reaction is an example of β - elimination reaction since hydrogen atom is eliminated from the β carbon atom.
