Question
Use curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in the following E2 mechanism. Draw thestructure of the transition state.
Step 1
This is shown by the curved arrow from the base to the hydrogen atom. This can be represented as follows: \[\stackrel{\delta^{-}}{\mathrm{OC}}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{3} \rightarrow \mathrm{H}_{3} \mathrm{CHC}^{--}-\mathrm{H}\] Show more…
