Chapter 7, Problem 7.9YT
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The missing curved arrow notation is to be supplied for the given E2 step, and the pertinent electron-rich and electron-poor sites are to be identified.

Concept introduction:

Curved arrow notation shows the movement of electrons from an electron-rich site to an electron-poor site.

In an E2 elimination, a base extracts an acidic (relatively electron-poor) hydrogen, with the CH bond pair moving to the next carbon bonded to the halogen (X), and the CX undergoes heterolysis.
