1) Alkenes can be prepared from alkyle halides through an elimination reaction with alcoholic KOH, which removes one molecule of halogen and forms a double bond between the carbon atoms. 2) Alkynes can be prepared from alkynes through partial reduction using Lindlar catalyst or poisoned quinidine, which reduces one triple bond to a double bond. 3) Vicinal dihalides can be converted to alkenes through a reaction with zinc in the presence of acetic acid solvent, which eliminates HX to form the double bond.
