CH3 H?O* H?O H?C CH3 H3C CH3 OH Tertiary alcohols undergo elimination via an E1 mechanism since the tertiary carbocation intermediate is especially stable. Zaitsev's rule is followed in the elimination to give the more substituted alkene as the major product. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the mechanism.
