When the substrate is allylic, resonance stabilization through conjugation with the adjacent π bond occurs in the transition state. This delocalization lowers the energy of the transition state and results in an enhanced rate.

Possible products: Possible products:   The Hofmann product would most likely predominate due to the coplanar cis configuration of the Br and H across the bridge. The E2 mechanism favors anti alignment of the H with the halogen leaving group. There are two possible anti-aligned H atoms that would lead to the Hofmann product.
