This molecule undergoes an E1 mechanism when stirred in methanol. Provide the missing parts of the mechanism by drawing necessary chemical species, curved arrows, formal charges, and lone pairs of electrons in the first two boxes. Draw ONLY the major alkene product of the reaction in the box to the far right (do not draw any by-products). Note that if you are drawing a hydrogen as a part of your mechanism, you need to draw ALL the hydrogens attached to that carbon.

A hydrogenadjacent to the carbocation being abstracted by the solvent (methanol). The formation of a double bond between the carbocation and the carbon from which the hydrogen was removedTo complete theE1 mechanismfor the given molecule when stirred in methanol, follow these steps:Identify the leaving group in the molecule and draw the first step with the leaving group departing, creating a carbocation intermediate. Show the formal charge on the carbon left behind and include any lone pairs on the leaving group.In the second step, draw a hydrogen adjacent to the carbocation being abstracted by the solvent (methanol), with a curved arrow to show the electron flow. Make sure to draw all hydrogens attached to the carbon from which the hydrogen is being removed. Show the formation of a double bond between the carbocation and the carbon from which the hydrogen was removed.In the final box, draw the major alkene product formed, without drawing any by-products.By following these steps, you should be able to complete theE1 mechanismand draw the majoralkene productfor the given molecule.Learn more abouthydrogen:brainly.com/question/24433860#SPJ11...
