Most of the trends and mechanisms associated with reductive elimination are simply the opposite of those for oxidative addition, so our discussions of reductive elimination will be fairly short.

The reaction is 2 nd order because the rate of the reaction is dependent on the concentration of both the nucleophile AND the structure of the starting material. This means that the nucleophile must approach exactly 180° opposite of the direction of the leaving group, which is where the larger lobe of the σ∗C−X lies.

Because of the 5-membered ring transition state, the delivery of the two alcohol functional groups occurs from the same face of the alkene.
