Chapter 7, Problem 7.11YT
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Appropriate curved arrow(s) are to be added to the electrophilic elimination step shown.

Concept introduction:

An electrophilic elimination step is the loss of an electron-poor atom, generally acidic hydrogen, to a suitable base. The electron-poor hydrogen is often one adjacent to a carbocation. So the loss of the electrophile is accompanied by the movement of the HC bond pair toward the carbocation.
