Question
Chapter 6.SE, Problem 26EDRM
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Curved arrows are to be added to the mechanism shown in problem 6-25 to indicate the electron movement in each step.
Concept introduction:
Curved arrows start from a nucleophilic source (neutral or negatively charged) and end in an electrophilic sink (neutral or positively charged). During the flow of the electrons the octet rule must be maintained both in the source and sink.
To draw:
Curved arrows are to be added to the mechanism for the conversion of isopropylidenecyclohexane in to 1- isopropylcyclohexene on treatment with strong acid at room temperature (problem 6-25) indicating the electron movement in each step.
