Elementary subgroup of an isotropic reductive group is perfect

Abstract

Let G be an isotropic reductive algebraic group over a commutative ring R. Assume that the elementary subgroup E(R) of group of points G(R) is correctly defined. Then E(R) is perfect, except for the well-known cases of a split reductive group of type C2 or G2.
