Draw an arrow pushing mechanism for this SN1 reaction The image depicts a chemical reaction diagram. **Reactant Structure:**- The reactant is a bicyclic compound featuring two benzene rings that share a common bond.- Two bromine (Br) atoms are attached to the benzene rings, specifically at adjacent positions.- A methyl group (CH₃) is also attached to one of the benzene rings.**Reaction Conditions:**- The reaction takes place in the presence of water (H₂O).- The temperature specified for the reaction is 110°C.**Product Structure:**- The product is another bicyclic compound, where one of the benzene rings now contains an oxygen atom incorporated into a five-membered ring.- The methyl group (CH₃) remains attached to the original position adjacent to the oxygen atom, indicating the formation of a heterocycle.The overall transformation implies the conversion of a dibrominated aromatic hydrocarbon to a bicyclic aromatic ether through a high-temperature reaction in the presence of water.

Show the mechanism by drawing curved arrows to represent the electron flow in the reactants.
Can you assist me in spotting my error in drawing out this mechanism? I understand that it's an SN1 reaction and can't figure out why the the drawing is incorrect. Thank you very much. Original Question: Draw the mechanism for the following reaction: Edit the reaction by drawing all steps in the appropriate boxes and connecting them with reaction arrows. Add charges where needed. Electron-flow arrows should start on the electron(s) of an atom or a bond and should end on an atom, bond, or location where a new bond should be created.
Each of the following may participate in an elimination reaction, under the proper conditions. (a) Circle the alpha (a) carbon. (b) Circle the beta (B) carbon(s). (c) Draw the alkene product(s) that may form, with the new double bond between the a and ß positions. (d) If more than one alkene product is possible, circle the most stable (Zaitsev) product.

For the SN2 reaction, draw the major organic product and select the correct (R) or (S) designation around the stereocenter carbon in the organic substrate and organic product. Include wedge‑and‑dash bonds and draw hydrogen on a stereocenter.
15. Polar protic solvents favor substitution because A) the SN2 mechanism they are weakly slovationg and the nucleophile is able to react rapidly. B) they strongly solvate the nucleophile lowering activation energy for formation of the transition state in the SN2 mechanism. C) they weakly solvate the leaving group allowing rapid loss of the halide according to the Hammond postulate. D) they strongly solvate the leaving group stabilizing the transition state for SN1 reactions according to the Hammond postulate.
