To delete item using REST API, the following example code for your reference.

<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
    var listName="listName";
    var itemId=1;
    $("#deleteItem").click(function(){
        deleteItem(listName,itemId);
    });
});
function deleteItem(listName,itemId){
    var siteUrl = _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl + "/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('"+listName+"')/items(" + itemId + ")";
    $.ajax({
        url: siteUrl,
        type: "POST",
        headers: {
            "Accept": "application/json;odata=verbose",  
            "X-RequestDigest": $("#__REQUESTDIGEST").val(),  
            "IF-MATCH": "*",  
            "X-HTTP-Method": "DELETE"  
        },
        async: false,
        success: function (data) {
            alert("Delete success");
        },
        error: function (data) {
        }
    });
}
</script>
<input id="deleteItem" type="button" value="Delete Item"/>

You dont need to reinvent the wheel. You should use the pnpjs: a microsoft library which uses the rest api to perform actions on sharepoint.
