When the molecule reacting with the electrophile is a strong nucleophile and a strong base, the substitution reaction is favoured when There is the least amount of crowding (steric hindrance) around the alpha carbon There is the most amount of crowding (steric hindrance) around the alpha carbon The leaving group is a strong base
