Buffer saturation plots show, for β-eliminations from carbanions, that the balance between rate-determining ionisation and elimination steps is delicately held by the leaving group, that steric effects are important in deciding ionisation rates, and that the competition between elimination from carbanions and their reprotonation is insensitive to structure.
