The curved arrow notation and products for each elementary step described by the given sequence are to be drawn. Concept introduction: The curved arrow can be drawn from electron-rich site to an electron-poor site to show the flow of electron from electron-rich site to electron-poor site. The first curved arrow drawn from the lone pair of negatively charged atom of electron-rich site to the less electronegative atom of electron-poor site. The second curved arrow drawn from the region between the less electronegative atom and more electronegative atom towards the more electronegative atom indicating the breaking of bond. The elementary step in which a species containing a nonpolar π bond (as part of a double or triple bond) approaches a strongly electron-deficient species is called electrophillic addition reaction. In electrophilic elimination reaction the electrophile is eliminated from the carbocation, generating a stable, uncharged, organic species by forming C=C bond. In a 1, 2- alkyl shift, a C − H or C − C bond adjacent to a carbocation is broken, and the bond is reformed to the C atom initially with the positive charge. The positive charge moves to the C atom whose bond is broken.

I have a question about this problem involving mechanisms and drawing curved arrows for acids and bases. I know we need to identify the nucleophile and electrophile, but are there different types of reactions? For instance, what about Grignard reagents and other types that I might not be familiar with? Can you help me with this? I want to identify the names of the mechanisms for problems 1-14, such as Gilman reagents and others. Are they all the same? Also, could you rewrite it so I can better understand? The handwriting is pretty cluttered. Additionally, I need to label the nucleophile and electrophile, but my main concern is whether those reactions differ, like the "Brønsted-Lowry acid-base mechanism, Lewis acid-base mechanism, acid-catalyzed mechanisms, acid-catalyzed reactions, base-catalyzed reactions, nucleophilic substitution mechanisms (SN1 and SN2), elimination reactions (E1 and E2), organometallic mechanisms, and so forth."
