The reaction of methoxide ion in 50%, (v/v) methanol–dimethyl sulphoxide with p-(2-methyl-2-nitro-propyl)nitrobenzene and its derivatives shows that the elimination reaction taking place is a concerted anti-periplanar E2 process and that the nucleofugacity of nitrite ion in this system lies between that of bromide and chloride ions.
