Using curved arrows to show movement of electron pairs, show the mechanism for this reaction. It is only necessary to draw one resonance structure for any intermediates that are resonance hybrids. Note that the H atom of the hydroxyl group is acidic enough to be removed by OH–; the first step in the mechanism is a proton transfer. The general mechanism for base-mediated saponification of an ester is outlined in one of the discussion videos that has been posted for this experiment.
